✅ re KCS and long reset - or more general - Do not use LONG reset for any hardware cartridge. Instead always use the short reset: This is by design: We are masking the "CBM80" signature on long reset. In the previous core version V5 (the currently officially released version) there was a long reset bug that lead to long reset not working (for example you could not leave Uridium or Eagles Nest). Now in the up-and-coming V5.1 version, long reset is fixed that means each cartridge that relies on the CBM80 signature will not work properly on long reset. Not all cartridges rely on this signature.(Here is more info on the signature: http://tech.guitarsite.de/cbm80.html and here is how we implemented LONG reset: https://www.c64-wiki.de/wiki/Reset-Taster )
