All;
I recently had a problem that (embarrassingly) took me 2 days to solve. To save someone else from wasting their time: I figured that I would post what I found.
My Virtual Pinball Cabinet uses a PinScape/KL25Z Controller. Which emulates a game controller, rather than a keyboard.
It was working fine for months, then all of a sudden: A single button press would cause the PinballX Wheel to spin as if the button was being pressed multiple times very quickly.
The cause was that 2 buttons were being pressed at the same time. I have a locking button inside the coin door that I press to simulate "coin door open". (switch open = coin door closed. switch closed = coin door open.) I had left this button in the wrong position after changing a VPX Table's Operator Settings.
Simply opening the switch solved my problem.
If you want to re-create the issue for fun: In the PinballX Table Selection Wheel: Hold down your insert coin button and press a flipper button.
If your reaction to this post was "Well, duh!": Please feel free to flame me in a reply.
