Arcade Spinner Games and MAME Sensitivity Settings

Digital Speed
&
Sensitivity
I used 6 on both, but I still get back spin with TT and the controls feels sluggish.
Warlords has:
Digital Speed
Paddle Autocenter Speed
Paddle Sensitivity
How are your setting supposed to be applied?

Digital Speed and Autocenter Speed control how digital controls mapped to analog functions operate. Those settings shouldn't affect your spinner at all.
I haven't heard of getting back spin with the Turbo Twist 2. How do you have your controls mapped? You should only have your spinner mapped to Dial Analog or Paddle Analog, not Analog Inc or Dec, which again are for digital controls mapped to analog functions.
Thanks for asking here on the thread. I should add a little note about this stuff in the first post.

Are you able to change the sensitivity through software or do you have to change the dipswitches on the spinner when you need a different sensitivity?

Yes, but i'm not sure what effect its really having. Since I'm not really sure what
the hardware settings are.
All i can do is change things until there seems to be a difference, which is not very accurate.

The dip switch settings and resolutions are listed right there in that table in the instruction manual pictures that I posted above, assuming that's the spinner you have. It doesn't look like there is any perfect setting for Tempest, though, unfortunately.

This is INCREDIBLE information. Thank you so much for compiling this. I just drilled the hole in my CP for my very first spinner and I'm really looking forward to trying a lot of these games.
