Adding 3 extra player movement controls in Torque X (C#)

Hey guys!

So for the design of the game we are going with 4 players max, I've added in all the templates for the extra players etc so Torque can find them ok but I'm having problems with the individual control schemes.

I modified the _SetupInputMap so it had _SetupInputMap2, 3 etc etc and succesfully recognised all 4 players, but then all player movement completely dissapeared. I then reverted back to a backup as when I tried to correct the errors, I managed to make about 90 other ones..

I've never attempted anything other than Singleplayer games so any advice on the best way to implement this would be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks again!

Thanks for that info, I should have specified I'm using Torque X so that's C# based not TorqueScript :)

Can't think straight in this heat o.O

Appreciated though! I'll bookmark that for my future TGB/E projects!
