Keyboard joystick emulation can be enabled/disabled in the Controller Config.
By default, joy 0 is enabled and joy 1 is disabled (to not steal normal
AWDS keys in the emulator).

Joystick 0 is operated by the mouse position relative to the center of
the screen. The mouse button acts as the trigger.  On Linux, standard
