  "Use the main mouse cursor to start a local server multiplayer game in one instance and to join in the others as the game has no gamepad support in menus, have all players enter the pause menu (press start) in order to move the mouse freely, otherwise it gets stuck. Make sure Steam Input is fully disabled for this game and that the gamepad is enabled in the game options-mouse-enable gamepad if you are using gamepads. Edit the joystick.cfg file in the GarrysMod handler folder if your gamepad is mapped incorrectly. If you use keyboards/mice after the instances open and finish setting up press the END key once for all instances to have their own cursor and for each instance mouse movement to work. Press the END key again to unlock the input when you finish playing.";
