Add PC Shutdown to Keyboard Automation options

Issue #5259 new
Drew Weaver created an issue

Could you please add “Shutdown” to the Keyboard Automation options? I use Big Box in an arcade cabinet controlled only by an X-Arcade tank stick and would like to be able to exit BB and shutdown the PC without opening the cabinet to use the keyboard. Judging from the forums I am not alone. Thanks!

    Not sure if it is something that will get added, but in the meantime there is a shutdown command in the option menu you can use without needing to use the keyboard. Just go to the options menu and scroll to the last item.

    Fair enough. I guess I meant I’d like to be able to shutdown the PC without leaving the Big Box main UI. It’s really just a vibe thing: I flip on the cabinet power and the PC boots up right into Big Box. Would be nice to exit and shutdown in a similar fashion, without ruining the “illusion”. Anyway, thus the “minor” priority. 🙂
