Modal controls like this aren't really a good thing. Suggestion:
1) Pressing Left or right keys disables point-to-move.
2) Moving mouse re-enables point to-move
3) both keys and mouse buttons for shoot and thrust are always enabled
at all times
That way, the game behaves as if both keyboard and mouse are active
simultaneously, and they never even have to be aware that they are
switching between one mode and the other.
