Some games take a long time to load up before you can actually play.  (startup checks, displaying various messages, etc)  I can't possibly be the only person who likes to skip through all that.

Mine is hidden. I reach for it when needed.

There are several hidden admin buttons on my cab, but the question was "on the CP" so I only listed those.

I'd rather wait the 10-20 seconds while a game loads instead of trying to design a layout for an additional button that will just cause confusion.  Whenever I design a panel I always make it as simple as possible.  The amount of questions people ask is staggering.  The average person isn't going to care to press a FF button (IMO).

Sorry, I should have specified. I am just trying to make sure I have all of the admin buttons defined, so I was getting a current opinion from other users.

On the CP or not. Doesnt matter.

Sorry.  :laugh:

I always find it funny when people consider 1 and 2 admin buttons...how do you expect to start the game without them ;D I consider admin buttons something you wouldn't find on a real arcade game, like Pause or TAB. That being said, on mine, I have ESC and TAB out of the way in the top left corner (TAB is nice to have to configure games). I have a pause button in the center between both players, so it's accessible to either. All 3 buttons are smaller push buttons that aren't easy to hit by accident. I also have F2 and F3 inside the coin door, just for authenticity :) Many games have the reset and menu buttons inside the door like that, and mine is mounted on the little bracket made for that. I also have the coin switches wired up, with 25 cent coin acceptors, but I also wired them to 2 push buttons that I are mounted next to the coin door, utilizing some existing security bolt holes, and they fit perfectly in them. That's what works for me anyway, your mileage may vary, professional driver on a closed course, offer valid in 49 states (sorry Tennessee!)  :laugh2:

Yeah, I definitely don't see START as an admin button.
