the ButtonWait option in WHDLoad is only a information provided to the Slave, all logic to react on a key/button is coded in the Slave, so this cannot be accomplished by WHDLoad it would maybe possible to extend https://whdload.de/docs/autodoc.html#resload_Delay for this, but this will only influence a very limited amount of installs |
|
|
Then I think it is safer to just implement my own function for checking on 4-player button-wait and have a check prior that if buttonwait was passed in the WHDload arguments Thanks for looking into this! You can close this request. |

| Ok. You may use https://whdload.de/docs/autodoc.html#resload_ReadJoyPort to check the 4-player adapter. | |
