mouse4 & mouse5 aren't detected by controls

mouse4 and mouse 5 (the back and forward buttons on the left side of some mice) aren't detected by the game. I'd like to be able to bind functions to these buttons in-game. Would you please consider letting Staxel detect these buttons so they could be bound in the Controls? Thanks!

Thanks for telling us. I believe this is because we aren't detecting extra buttons like these. Noted it down and might be fixed up soon.

Thanks! I also noticed one additional issue in the interim.

I bound "Move Forward" to middle mouse so I could control the game one-handed more or less. Double-clicking that button doesn't seem to allow me to run in the same way that double-tapping W does.

Just wanted to mention that it also doesn't seem to be detecting mouse side buttons on my Linux install.

Not sure if side button detection just hasn't been added yet, or it it's a Linux specific issue though. I know there's a few input cases on Linux that get detected differently than Windows, but I can't remember if extra mouse buttons is one of them.
(And thanks for having a Linux version, by the way!
