==Controller== | |||
It is possible to use a [[wikipedia:Gamepad|gamepad]] rather than the standard mouse and keyboard, which is ideal for local 4 player split-screen co-op. | |||
To use a controller, it must first be connected and installed correctly in the operating system. | |||
Any controller can be tested from the controller tab in the [[Options|game options]], to ensure all buttons are functioning correctly. The controller sensitivity can also be adjusted there. | |||
