Since recently I have two new joysticks, and first opportunity to play games that support two players. I’ve found that the joystick port 1 behaves strange. After a while the joystick becomes non-responsive. After a few seconds or after a few minutes. Pressing the fire button on joystick 2(!) seems to release joystick 1 for a while again.
Swapping the two joysticks does not change anything. It seems to be port 1 releated.
Using the two joysticks in the C64 core works fine, it’s only on the MEGA65 core.
Tested in BASIC, Schluckauf and Showdown, core batch 2, ROM 920377.
Update:
I think I found the issue: I had Joystick 1 port configured as 'Amiga to 1351 enabled'. Once I put it back to 'Normal', both joysticks behave as expected.
