| Admin button question for you JAMMA-Mamers |

| Turnarcades:
There are arguments for both adding and shifting. At Turnarcades we add buttons as our cab design allows for this and the buttons double-up as extra gaming buttons on platforms that demanded it, but not all cab shapes allow for this setup. If you have room, I'd advise adding one or two buttons at least, but don't go overboard. If you do use shifted buttons, be very careful about what you choose for 'escape' as that could be a big pisser if it's activated by accident and your game resets. |

Yeah, that's the biggest one. For some reason I think of it last. I think because on the panel of my main rig, it's the standard shifted 'pause'. |

That happening even once in the heat of a game sucks. Sucks, sucks, SUCKS!! (Yes, it happened to me.) |

I wonder, is there a way to toggle a shifted button on and off? By that I mean so that when I push a button all my controls switch over to their shifted functions without having to hold down the shift key. |

Otherwise you'd need a hardware solution. The thing is, every time a special doo-hickey this or that is cued, there has to be a way to exit it, etc. which means another switch or/and process involved. |
