If there is more than one way to perform an action in the game, does it matter which way I decide to use in my command?
Sometimes, that is if one of the ways to perform an action is with the mouse then it's usually best to assign the mouse button steps to the command instead of keyboard steps. Many FPS games will fire your weapon when you press the CTRL (control) key on your keyboard, but you likely can also fire your weapon when you press the left mouse button. So by assigning the left mouse button instead of the CTRL key (in this example), it will allow you to also use the 'Fire Weapon' button to click menu items inside the game's startup or pause menus (for example). This is particularly useful when you map one of your controller's joysticks to control mouse movements, allowing you to fully control any mouse-driven menus inside the game using only your controller device. Other examples could be if the mouse wheel can be used to cycle through your available weapons, often times when using a scoped weapon this will double for zoom in/zoom out (which likely would not work that way if you used the keyboard equivalent).
