Controller Automation bugs

Issue #1026 new
Cory Jones created an issue

I've encountered a couple bugs with Controller Automation:

1) With certain emulators, the "close the active window" function closes both the emulator and Launchbox. This particular issue only affects Launchbox - the function works normally through Big Box. This issue was reported previously here and was supposedly patched, but I'm still encountering it on a couple specific emulators: PCSX2, Sega Model 2, and PPSSPP. I'm currently on the newest beta as of 6/15/2016.

2) With two specific emulators - CCS64 and MAMEUI - the "close the active window" function doesn't seem to do anything at all. I've tried multiple games and multiple controllers and it just won't close the emulator.

    With AutoHotKey which I presume is being used to close the emulators, a script I created that works well is:

    ExitButton = vk07sc000
    Loop {
        If (GetKeyState(ExitButton)) {
            WinGetActiveTitle, WindowTitle
            If (WindowTitle != "Launchbox Big Box"){
                WinKill, %WindowTitle%
            }
        }        
    }
    

    The key "vk07sc000" is just the xbox logo button, but obviously this would be a customizable option. This script only works with Big Box though, it still will close Launchbox
