Using the Setup program (or a corresponding menu in a source port), it is possible to reassign these key functions to other keys. When using mouse and keyboard, many players (right-handed people and/or players of modern games in particular) find the default location of certain keys to be less-than-optimal. However, values over 30 will cause DOOM to crash whenever the Options menu is accessed. While the Options menu in Vanilla DOOM imposes an upper limit on the maximum mouse sensitivity that some may consider too low, it is possible to bypass this limit by manually editing the Configuration file. Many source ports include this as an internal configuration option. This is used especially by players to control forward/backward movement from the keyboard only and thus want to disregard inadvertent vertical mouse movement. Some TSRs (such as Istvan Pataki's Novert) and mouse drivers provide the option to disable or decrease mouse forward/backward movement. In mouse and keyboard mode, usually the mouse is used for turning, firing and (perhaps to a lesser extent) strafing and moving forward, and the keyboard is used for the other functions. The keyboard and mouse combination also provides rapid rotation and easier strafing, resulting in quicker maneuvers than when using the keyboard alone. The instruction manuals provide a tip that recommends using the keyboard and mouse simultaneously, saying "the mouse provides fine control for aiming your weapon (allowing you to smoothly rotate right and left) ".
