Turbo ColecoVision controls

DigDug

Hello. I'm running Retropie on my Raspberry Pi with an SNES30 controller and can't figure out how to control Turbo for ColecoVision. The A button is for the gas but nothing else works. I'm even having trouble using the keyboard. I figured out space bar is for the gas but that's the only control I got working. How do I use my controller with this game? It uses the wheel expansion so I wonder if that's why it's not working. My ColecoVision starting not working properly recently so I'm using Retropie. Thanks!

'Turbo' requires the player two inputs to control the game. It's somewhat unusual for Colecovision, but you saw it all the time with Intellivision and the Odyssey². Which emulator are you trying to use to play it?

Looks like I was mistaken. Controller input from the second port only acts as the gear shift and a means in which to select the difficulty. The ''Expansion Model 2" (Racing wheel) is still needed for steering and acceleration. Unfortunately, I don't believe this control scheme is supported in either of the two available Colecovision emulators.
