Albion without a mouse (Steam Deck) #52

Thanks for your amazing work. From a technical point of view, would it be possible to make the game 'mouse-free', so that it can be played with a controller without the need of a mouse?

I am considering getting a Steam Deck. While I don't see any problems with installing the Linux port of Albion (has anyone already gone through the process?), the above-mentioned mouse-free option would make the mobile gaming experience much better.

Given that Albion wasn't designed to be played this way, it is more of a general question.

The only way of playing without a mouse is to simulate the mouse inputs (movement, left+right button).
