Tip

• If you want to use a real joystick, see real joystick support.

Note

• There is an additional option for keyboard joysticks, Spectrum Cursor keys, which makes the PC keyboard's cursor keys behave just like those on a Spectrum+/128/+2/+2A/+3. This is useful when editing basic programs.

• The AMX mouse hardware clashes with the Kempston joystick interface (they both use port 31). The joystick will not respond if the AMX mouse is enabled.
