      I would like to remap most buttons for the C64 game space crusade, but some don't work (most do).

      I'm using Recalbox on a GPi case (Game Boy case, no keyboard).

      My .p2k.cfg:

      # cat "Space Crusade.d64.p2k.cfg" 
      # Toggle scroll
      # Does not work, a moves the cursor up (could be a keyboard key)
      0:a = s ;; Scroll Mode
      # b should be fire, but it's also up?
      # ideally, a would be joystick fire and b would be keyboard s
      
      # quick select marine or commander (broken, X does not work)
      0:start = 1 ;; Select Commander
      0:y = 2 ;; Select Marine 2
      # Does not work, x is fixed to space
      0:x = 3 ;; Select Marine 3
      0:l1 = 4 ;; Select Marine 4
      0:r1 = 5 ;; Select Marine 5
      

      It's great that Select brings up an on-screen keyboard, but X being hardwired to Space and Joystick Fire is useless, since this game does not use the space bar.

      How can I remap these buttons? Is there some C64 specific config that currently blocks them?

        Never mind, I figured it out:

        If .p2k.cfg only partially works on C64: Maybe parts of it get overridden by the C64 emulator settings. To check (On a GPi case):

        1. Select B to open Quick Menu
        2. Options (select with B)
        3. Retropad Mapping Options
        4. Remove conflicting entries (set to ---)
        5. back → back to Quick Menu
        6. Overrides
        7. Save Game Overrides
