"Go Back" on system lists

[[email protected]]

I can't seem to find this option.

In settings - General Settings - Systems List - Show on startup = enabled

When PinballX starts - it asks what system you'd like to select.  In my case it would be Visual Pinball and Pinball FX3.  Cool.  Works perfect.  Except once you choose one, there is no way to go back to choose a different system?   You have to exit the frontend and reload.   

Is that correct?  Is that intended?  Logically allowing the [exit emulator] keybind to do this makes sense to me?      The [quit] keybind just brings up the exit front end menu.    

thanks,

No, hit the start button and in the menu go to systems again

So choose a system, then choose a game, then choose go back to systems.

Not very intuitive - in fact I would expect most folks to never figure that out.  Why would I try to start a game when my intent is to choose a different system?    Thanks for the explanation though.  

And I guess if you have it set to not pull up the game menu and just launch it directly, you'd be stuck without ever getting the option.

Sorry, my mistake. My button called start. This will show the menu where you can start the table,  get extra info, but systems is in that list as well.

So indeed not the direct launch button.

If you dont have setup this button, you will not get to filters or custom database, recently added etc.

I have both buttons setup in my cab

Sorry for the wrong info I gave you

No worries.   Just trying to figure this stuff out.  In GameEx (on my arcade cabinet) there is a clear "enter system / exit system" functionality.    Strange that its not the same in PinballX, which is basically doing the same thing, just with a different presentation.   Maybe I'll do a feature request.

How many buttons do you have on your cab ? Without the flipper buttons

5 total on the front.

Launch ball (enter)

Coin in (5)

Start Game (1)

Extra Ball (2)

Exit Table (q)

Then a shifted function (esc) to quit the emulator.

Gotcha. So you mapped the buttons to keys.

I use the buttons sifferent in pbx rhan in vpx.

Also have 5 buttons

Launch ball - Direct table start

Start - Select 

Exit - Exit emulator/pbx

Coin - show instructions

Pause - Pause game
