Joypad support

I'm using a PS2 controller to play Graal but there are still quite a lot of issues with it.

My biggest issue is that I can't strafe on Era. The system was recently just changed to make the strafe hotkey definable by the players, but it uses KeyPressed. Even if I set it to 'Button1' it won't work with my joypad.
If the script was changed to ButtonPressed instead of KeyPressed (since I gather that keys = keyboard keys, while buttons = graal buttons) would it be possible to configure a hotkey to a joypad button? The problem that exists then is that other people can't use non-button keys. (I tried setting the hotkey to 'p' and then using the joypad button that I had set to 'p' aswell, and it didn't work.)

Also, since I'm using a PS2 controller and the right analogue stick has no real function, would it be possible to script it to act as a mouse and have button 12 (when you press the analogue stick in) to act as a mouse click? (So that I can change weapons and such with scripted inventories.)

It's also not possible to remove button completely in the Controls -> Change Keys menu with a joypad. You just need to try and put it on an out-of-the-way button if you don't want that function. And it's not possible to have the same funtion on two different buttons (since there is only one column for for joypads).

I just feel like as though since Graal is derived from a console game, it should have more support for game controllers.
