OSD keyboard can’t type on GameHat for snapshot saving #238

Open darwiniandude opened 1 year ago

darwiniandude commented 1 year ago

After testing BMC64 and being impressed I just picked up a Game Hat for pocket C64 goodness. On screen keyboard works in the C64 but not in the menu, specifically I can’t type into the snapshot save field. Am I missing something or is this not implemented? Snapshots would be super useful for a portable system you have to power off to save battery, and resume your game later. If too hard to implement perhaps an automatically incrementing snap1, snap2 etc file name could be pre-filled when saving? This is my biggest game stopper so far.

I think the on screen keyboard is only used for C64 input, not the menu system itself (if I recall correctly). The auto increment is an option, but I have no time to work on BMC64 features anymore. If someone else cares to implement it, I can take a merge request and make a build.
