Did they forget throttle controls in After Burner?
I'm talking about the US version, written by the awesomely-named Jeff Spangenberg:
[ Show youtube player ] As far as I can tell, there's no way of actually using throttle in the game. The readout is there but the manual doesn't mention it at all (see pic). I tried using the instructions from the PC version (both keys and joystick) but they do nothing. I'm stumped. It's not like there were a lot of features to include, surely they can't just have forgotten? |

Uusing WinUAE, both alt keys and the home key increase the throttle (although without any actual after burner animation..). There doesn't seem to be a decrease throttle button.

Ooh yeah. At first I thought the right Alt was doing braking, but I think that just coincided with me getting hit and crashing
Weird to not have a control for slow, though. |

I'm already using the WHDLoad version, labelled "AfterBurner_v1.0_0095.lha".
