Inadvertent firing of smoke - Windows Surface Pro 2 with keyboard - SOLVED

RE: Inadvertent firing of smoke - Windows Surface Pro 2 with keyboard - SOLVED
If anyone is wondering about playing on a Surface Pro 2 (with a Touch keyboard) it seems I solved this problem by disabling the "tap trackpad to click mouse" or whatever it is called (and instead just use the trackpad "buttons"). It looks like I was inadvertently clicking and selecting all kinds of stuff.

And here's my thoughts on playing the game on a Surface Pro 2 Windows 8 - works fine, but:
- you will need a keyboard cover as that has a trackpad (essential) and keyboard (for shortcuts - useful)
- you'll miss your big monitor, but I'm playing a couple of larger scenarios (including a complexity 10) and it's manageable
- in addition to turning off the trackpad tap thingy described above, you'll also want to turn off the TRACKPAD swipe in that loads up the charms which annoyed me for a while
- the feel of the trackpad button and general ergonomics aren't great, but I'm doing ok - but I may get a USB mouse as that would remove the last bugbear.
- Once the docking station comes out, I'll probably junk my desktop computer and run the tablet on my home monitor when I'm at home
- Needless to say, presumably the game does not work on a Surface RT, I am talking about the Surface Pro (2)

Mini-review over, if relevant to anyone out there.
