      I'm having serious doubts about configuring the dipswitches for the various Dragon's Lair titles and similar games.

      I want to take each case individually and find the best solution, so I would say let's start with Dragon's Lair “Lair” using the F2 ROMs.
      I'm referring to what is said here:
      https://www.dragons-lair-project.com/tech/dips/dl_alt.asp

      If i understand correcly we have that:
      -bank 0 it's switch A from A7 ... A0
      -bank 1 it's switch B from B7 ... B0

      My current lair.command contain this setting for bank:

      -bank 0 10011101 -bank 1 01000111
      

      In theory with this settings i have set this:

      • 5 Dirk for game at A5 = 0
      • Enable Easy difficult at all with B7 = 0. Whit B=0 at 0 A1,A2 and B4 has no effect at all
      • Enable the attract sound at all. If understan correctly it's need to set B1 = 1 but after that B0 = 1

      With this title, there's one thing I can't get to work! Activate “Continue” at the end of lives.

      The continue feature.. in theory it's part of PAY-AS-YOU-GO but i can't understand how it's need to be configure that it's make me CRAZY like an hell:
      Start to read on official documentation right now with A6 = 0 and B5 = 0 i can continue to play for three times and i can also to restart the games from beginning after the games it's completely won/end.

      Ok.... here i have tryes so many configuration and or it's present some bugs on hypseus or it's not work. This doesn't seem to be working.
      Am I doing something wrong?

      By google i have found in same forum a very old thread here:
      https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/12936
      It's suggest a configuration for lair.command But there's something I don't like about that configuration, like only 3 lives instead of 5.
      I tried to adapt it as explained, but there's no way to make it work. Is it really that difficult?
