Area 51 off-screen reloading is very spotty with GunCon3 #205

The off-screen reloading is very difficult. Almost have to shoot a certain spot for it to work. Mechanic works perfectly in Maximum Force and Lethal Enforcers.

Can you verify with a GunCon2? Also, try other cores such as Genesis or SNES Lethal Enforcers. I'm not sure this is a core specific issue.

I just tried with Lethal Enforcers on Genesis and SNES and the off screen reload works fine in the SNES (Genesis has a reload button for that).

However, after more testing it seems like it's only the games that use the Justifier have this issue. All the GunCon specific games work fine.

Just confirmed. I tried a GunCon patch on Crypt Killer (which unpatched you couldn't do the off-screen reload) and now it works being patched. Sadly, no patch was ever made for Area 51.

Justifier mode depends on timer/hblank tick counting, which is not tested against hardware yet and likely not correct. Needs to be worked on.

Ahh thanks for the head up on that!
