A different way of moving your ship.

I might be the only one here who'd want to see this implemented but it's a big issue for me.

My mouse is always on the fritz, I am extremely rough on them, and I find myself flying off in random direction if I ever want to rotate my camera around my ship. Could we make it so that we can customize the "double click to move" setting? I would be infinitely more happy knowing that if I accidentally double click off into space while dragging my camera around, I won't be moving outside of logi range while waiting for an engagement, or sitting at a POS and start flying out of the shield because I wanted to do one last spin prior to getting a cup of coffee.

TL:DR Give us the ability to change our double click to move option.

buy a new mouse? They're not expensive.

Stop being so rough with your mice, seriously what are you doing to them? I don't think I've ever had a mouse die due to heavy use.

Saying that, I discovered trackballs years ago, and have never looked back, saves so much desk real-estate they're great.

Seriously this sounds like a unique problem, be more gentle with your electronics. All you have to do is gently slide it maybe within a 4 inch in diameter.

Just a suggestion seeing how we've had so many other hotkey changes recently. This isn't a request to make this change for everyone, just give us the option to change it how we see fit.
