Just got my PT Boats today. Installed and took for a test run ( actually tutorial mission #1 ). I have the disc so they sent me two manuals ( PT Boats manual and Units Manual ). Spent about two hours just trying to learn the controls, and tutorial or not I keep getting my butt sunk.

But the A and D keys work alright for me. Have to admit both A & D are a little "Squirrely" IMHO, If you hit the D key for example to turn left it keeps turning left for a few seconds even after you have let go of the key. I believe that's done on purpose though.

If your just starting out in tutorial mode, ignore the leader and head out way away from the rest and try out all the keys. Press A & D a little longer than just a click as it seems the boat is slow to respond sometimes. Most of the keys are ok with me so far except for the spacebar launching the torps as you have to have a target insight in the binocs first. Will get to that later.

Looks like fun but Wow what a learning curve.

Edit: You didn't remap your A & D keys did you?
