Missing key feature #8

Closed juri74 closed 1 year ago

juri74 commented 1 year ago

Hi, the real C128 have two features: pressing Commodore key during reset or power on, C128 start directly in c64 mode without the need to type "GO 64" in C128 basic pressing Run/stop during power on or reset C128 start in monitor mode. this feature is very useful because if you reset c128+run/stop you do not lose the basic program in memory. i notice if i press C= key (Windows key) while pressing core reset button on mister nothing happen, it do a standard reset. same with run/stop key pressed (END key)

These both work if you press them just at the right time. Unfortunately, the MiSTer resets the keyboard status when a core starts, so the timing has to be just right. When using reset option in the core's menu, keyboard is also reset, unless you turn off the "Release keys on reset" option in the Hardware settings.
