I think It would be hard to send a new map in the mists of a game,
but there are custom U360 maps that work quite well for Tron, that only have the 8-way diagonals enabled in the extreme corners

I sent a PM to Arzoo regarding my idea and he said LED blinky could do that but it would require that MAME send a message when each Tron game switches level, so we would need the MAME developers to impliment that feature in Tron.

Arzoo also suggested using AutoHotKey and assign buttons to switch modes but I prefer to have the whole thing automated.

While the custom map may work quite well, my idea would work perfectly and hitting diagonals in the Ligt Cycles would be a thing of the past.

Just thought I would mention that MAME's built-in joystick maps for analog joysticks pretty much makes this Tron problem a thing of the past.  See this thread for the settings to use:

Not a single zig-zag on lightcycles with that map.
