So... basically the Gtk3 UI isn't awesome? I thought I was protected here, no lemon64 or forum64 bullshit, just arrogant sceners like me.

I shall take this to Lemon64, this is definitely NOT okay.

You are all doing it wrong anyhow.
Grab a proper USB-2-C64 Joystick adapter and enable autofire on your Competition Pro.

Sigh ... it's only Turrican!

Outrageous!

(actually compyx is playing around with joystick mapping things atm.... there is also 2/3 button support that needs proper GUI, and perhaps even a feature to map arbitrary things like in the SDL port. adding autofire on top should be easy enough. later :))

Logiker was kind enough to write this AutoHotkey script, work like a charm:

(you need to install AutoHotKey to get it run)

#MaxThreadsPerHotkey 2

Menu, Tray, Icon, c:\windows\syswow64\msctf.dll, 21,
Menu, Tray, Tip, AutoFire

SetKeyDelay, 0, 50

Gui, Add, Text,, AutoFire activator:
Gui, Add, Hotkey, vOutputVar, F12

Gui, Add, Text,, AutoFire key:
Gui, Add, Hotkey, vKey

Gui, Add, CheckBox, vSpaceIsFire, Use Space as fire (and not AutoFire key)!

Gui, Add, Text,, AutoFire delay.
Gui, Add, Edit, Number vDelay, 500

Gui, Add, Button, Default w80, OK

Gui Show, Center w250, AutoFire ;w200
return

ButtonOK:
Gui, Submit  ; Save the input from the user to each control's associated variable.
Hotkey,%OutputVar%,DoIt
Return
ExitApp


DoIt:
Toggle := !Toggle
while Toggle
{
if SpaceIsFire
Send, {Space}
Else
Send, %Key%
Sleep, %Delay%
}
Return

That's Windows-only and won't help our Linux, MacOS or *BSD user much.

As groepaz mentioned, I'm working on the joystick code to allow mapping buttons, including auto-fire at some point. This however will take some time, merging the threaded branch takes priority.
Also, since the joystick code is different on Windows, MacOS, *BSD and Linux, this will take some time. I'm not much of a Windows hacker so to me the Windows DirectInput code looks like it'll open a portal to Hell.

So, patience please. I like working on VICE, but I'd occasionally also like to work on C64 code/gfx.
