Controls can be changed in the Options / Controls menu. For example, if you have extra buttons or joystick axes, pressing them down or in a direction can be assigned to Quaff, Read, etc.
By default (in "Auto" Controller Mode in the Controls menu), the UI will switch to be more joystick/gamepad centric if you use the joystick/gamepad, then equivalent to choosing the "Primary" Controller Mode.
If you have a controller plugged in that you don't want to use for WazHack but which causes accidental movements, choose "Disable Controller".
