Preface
This guide assumes a player is using the common WASD configuration for their movement keys, configured with the following:
bind W +forward
bind S +back
bind A +moveleft
bind D +moveright
Players should choose the method that they feel comfortable with, modify the key binding to match their movement layout, and then paste into the bottom of odamex.cfg.

Turnspeeds Toggle
Usage: The player will SR-40 to the right with W & D and then SR-50 by holding down the second mouse button. Note that this method will require the player to press the second mouse button when first spawning to initialize the controls. If the player forgets do do this, the A and the D keys will spin the player's view instead of moving them to the left or right. Note that +sr50l_ts will take the place of the key bound to +moveleft and +sr50r_ts will take the place of the key bound to +moveright.
