changing default keyboard controls? #136

Closed pine-serpent closed 9 months ago

pine-serpent commented 9 months ago

default the arrows are directions, z is b, x is a... i know I can change controls in the f1 retroarch menu but how can I change them so they persist even after wiping cache/cookies in my browser? thank you!

The code is here that sets the default file if it does not exists: https://github.com/linuxserver/emulatorjs/blob/master/frontend/js/libretro.js#L6-L8

You can also change the default profile file in the docker image:

https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-emulatorjs/blob/master/root/etc/s6-overlay/s6-rc.d/init-emulatorjs-config/run#L29-L35

But that one is not automated it is only pulled when the user manually clicks pull default profile in the frontend.

I have no plans to implement a server owner setting a default config, the idea is that it is the base settings retroarch uses for every client and they set it up how they want in their client space.
