    Hi!

    Quick question.

    How can I setup 2 controllers for 1 keyboard? I’m using a makey-makey to create a custom controller. It’s concidered a keyboard so I can set it to input any key a keyboard could.

    I’ve looked into manually editing the input configs. But they seem alot more complicated now than they were before. Each key has a “ID”, and a “Value” set to 1. Should I simply add new lines without any ID and change value from 1 to 2?

    Or how can I add a keys for a secound controller/player using the same keyboard? (Mostly concerned about nintendo/super nintendo)

    Thank you for your help!

    the config is located on /configs/all/
    What you need to do is simply copy all “input_player1” and change 1 to 2.
    Found out by trial and error. Supprisingly there’s not much information of how to do this. Maybe they believe that it’s “too easy” to cover – which it isn’t in my opinion.
