These keys can be customized through the "Configure" menu, as well as assigned to a joystick.
Since there are no default joystick settings, you must configure the joystick buttons before Aura will recognize your joystick or gamepad. This can be done in the "Configure" menu.
You can also assign shortcut keys to "Run North," "Run East," "Run South," "Run West," "Touch North," "Touch South," "Touch East," and "Touch West." This can be especially useful if you are using a dual-stick gamepad.
