1. The brake, as I remember it, was the v key. I personally switched off the v key and put the brake as the space bar. Now also if you are playing in the Local Game, I don't think there are a lot of brakes there.
2. To get speed, ride across yourown or an opponents wall.
3,6. There are map editors out there but I am not very familiar with them, another member will probably come to your aid with that one.
4. I never use my mouse for tron ;) but I know what you are talking about. There is also a zoom out command. The next round, the zoom should be normalized again.
5. What keeps you from dying in this game is called rubber. Each server or map has a different setting of rubber. The local game is 1 rubber (almost instant death), a game style called fortress has 5 rubber (half a second and you are dead), and high rubber usually ranges from 25-30 rubber (2.5 or so seconds before you die) The amount of a rubber a server allows you to have creates a different style of gameplay. There is no way to *pick* the rubber unless you run your own server but you need to adapt to it.

Hope at least one of these helped

The break must be enabled for it to work.

By being parallel and as close to another wall (except the outer wall) as possible. If sparks are flying, that should give you some good speed.

In the key binding menus, you can press the delete key to unbind a key, or mouse movement.

In the console cycle_rubber <value> is the command to use. You can setup a console key in the global keybinds menu.

There is an experimental map editor called [urll=http://forums.armagetronad.net/viewtopic.php?t=2495]ACME[/url] or you can use an SVG editor and the svg2aamap program.
