MAME control set up based on controller type

great app, loved the anniversary show!

I’d love to see a MAME controller setup built into LB where LB would output per game cfg (or is ini files?).

currently, within MAME, you can set global controls but these global controls don’t transfer to all game appropriately.

example: setting up buttons for a 6 button fighter, you tend to set up 3 over 3, which means in MAME, you would set up button 4 as the first button in the second row. but if i’m setting up say neo geo games, i would set up 4 buttons in one row.

example 2: twin stick shooters. for alternating games, like robotron, i would set up the twin sticks to be my two center sticks. for a co-op twin stick shooter, i’d set up P1 and P2 to use different sticks

so within LB, it would be a matter of selecting game control type, “1 player single button”, “2 player 4 buttons”, etc. assigning those controls, LB outputs ALL MAME games ini’s and bob’s your uncle.
