edge screen mouse vs arrow keys turning

[Hellaciouss]

Can someone explain why you turn much faster with arrow keys then when dragging your cursor to the edges of the screen to turn and turning that way?

No real idea but it occurs to me that depending on your screen resolution and your monitor/graphics card/windows/in-game screen size/shape settings, then the edge of your monitor screen may not be the edge of the computed screen as the game would consider it. Just a wild theory.

It might just be that the continuous checks for a keypress require less real-time computation than a dynamic cursor screen position check and so can be more frequent. <shrug>

Ok. Just seems weird and a little frustrating in slower turning ships.
