Hey are there any plans to implement accommodations to left-handed players who have the primary and secondary mouse buttons reversed on windows by default?

Most games support it but every now and then I find a game that doesn't and if they decide to fix this issue, until then does anyone know how I would go about edditting files manually to reverse every possible action with the mouse buttons?

    It's quite annoying this is so hidden, lot's of people have questions on customizing their controls in such a way that cannot be done ingame. Anyway, you could edit the following file in notepad.

    Go to Run in your start menu and type

    %appdata%


    Now go to the Natural Selection 2 folder and open <b>options.xml</b> with notepad and find

    <PrimaryAttack>MouseButton0</PrimaryAttack>

    <SecondaryAttack>MouseButton1</SecondaryAttack>


    And change them around, 1->0 and 0->1

    will this do more other than just switch the FPS attack buttons?
