I'm running VO on a Mac OSX10.4. Is there anyway of disabling the CAP LOCK key? In the midst of battle, I would sometimes hit the CAPS LOCK, and VO doesn't recognize the flight keys (eg: w,s,a,d) anymore.

A simple answer is to bind W, S , D etc to the same functions as w , s, d etc.

I don't know if it can be done in Tiger, but in Linux/Xorg, I use this wrapper to start the game:

---
OLD=`pwd`
cd ~/.vendetta
xmodmap -e "remove Lock = Caps_Lock"
./vendetta
xmodmap -e "add Lock = Caps_Lock"
cd $OLD
---

And while VO is running, Caps Lock is disabled.

Yes, in Mac OS X 10.4, you can disable Caps Lock as follows:

Open System Preferences
Click on "Keyboard and Mouse"
On the Keyboard section, click the "Modifier Keys" button. This takes you to a dialog where you can remap or disable the Caps Lock, Command, Option and Control keys on the keyboard.

Also useful if you are using some 3rd party keyboards that get the Command and Option keys backwards.

Thanks! I mapped the CAPS to the lower case keys
