Description

It is not possible to play the game on a gamepad because trackball support is only available on the mouse.

Please add trackball support on analog sticks. And add in the settings on which stick to assign trackball control. Thanks!

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating RetroArch's existing mouse trackball handling and controller settings, then determine how analog-stick assignment should be exposed. Done means the game can receive trackball input from a selected analog stick through the settings.
