Post subject:  Configuring joystick

I recently had the completely terrible idea that using my joystick would be superior to the mouse in some way and decided to try to set it up as such. Buuuut, it's not working anyways. I want to move with WASD and aim/look with the stick, but I can't seem to set it up.

I went into the user.ini to change it all manually since i can't assign X/Y axis to look via the UT UI, so I went to the ini instead, but... it's kinda confusing. there's all these other bits that don't make any sense to me. I'd suspected this is what makes mouse look and act like the mouse. (hurr)

MouseX=Count bXAxis | Axis aMouseX Speed=2.0
MouseY=Count bYAxis | Axis aMouseY Speed=2.0

And I suspect these lines...

JoyX=Axis aStrafe SpeedBase=300.0 DeadZone=0.1
JoyY=Axis aLookUp SpeedBase=100.0 DeadZone=0.1 Invert=-1

Are the ones that I need to fiddle with. But I don't know what to make it look like, because there's aaaaalsoooo...

Aliases[32]=(Command="Axis aBaseX SpeedBase=100.0 DeadZone=0.1",Alias="SpaceFighter_JoyX")
Aliases[33]=(Command="Axis aLookUp SpeedBase=100.0 DeadZone=0.1",Alias="SpaceFighter_JoyY")
Aliases[34]=(Command="Axis aUp Speed=+300.0 | Axis aStrafe SpeedBase=300.0 DeadZone=0.1",Alias="SpaceFighter_JoyV")
Aliases[35]=(Command="Axis aBaseY SpeedBase=300.0 DeadZone=0.1 Invert=-1",Alias="SpaceFighter_JoySlider1")

Which seem only for the space fighters in some assault maps, but... they're not posted down below under the actual commands spot. Do I want to make it look something like this?

JoyX=Axis aBaseX SpeedBase=300.0 DeadZone=0.1
JoyY=Axis aLookUp SpeedBase=100.0 DeadZone=0.1 Invert=-1

Using the joystick for aiming? You're right, that is a terrible idea.
If you want to use the joystick for something, movement is probably what it would be the least bad for. I think that what UT uses it for by default.

Yeah. X and Y are strafe and front/back, which would be fine if I had a stick that worked in my left hand.
