- I've had the joystick go out of calibration a few times. But it looks like
- there is a solution for us. The Appendix says that if the stick goes out of
- calibration you can just hit "J" to re-calibrate. I haven't tried it yet,
- but there it is.

- My second gripe with the game after my first 10 hours of play (the first
- gripe being the time it takes to PLAY the damn game) is: the user interface
- just isn't intuitive enough. Now I have a crippled-for-life star running
- back on my active roster. How the hell do I replace the guy, or does he
- have to start him in his wheelchair? I'm about the consult the manual (dag!
- I hate to do it), but having played PC games for years and years it
- shouldn't be necessary to consult the manual to get something like this
- done. (Recalibrating the joystick on the fly is ONE thing, but in the
- roster moves section you've got MENUS to work with, fer cryin out loud.)
