      Hi,

      my Logitech Gamepad is detected by RetroPie after the first start and it works with all Emulators and also with SuperTux. When i start SuperTux with '--joymap 1:2:3:4:5' i can play it with the Gamepad. When i start a new game in supertux there is a little intro thta can speed up with enter on the keyboard, but not with the Gamepad. It seems there is no way to skip the intro.

      How can i map one of the Gamepad buttons to the enter button of the keyboard only for SuperTux? With RetroPie 3.8 i mapped my xBox360 Controller to Keyboard using xboxdrv and 'ui-buttonmap'. Here https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Universal-Controller-Calibration-&-Mapping-Using-xboxdrv is a Guide how to simulate a xBox Controller. I've tried this mapping (point (1)) and then mapping this to keyboard with ui-buttonmap (3a) but it doesn't work.

      Maybe this can be helpful for playing other Games (Ports)?

        It's a feature that's being considered, but unfortunately xboxdrv hasn't been worked on in a little over a year now.

          @Maynard At the moment there is no way to map joystick buttons to keyboard keys

          EDIT: Except for some emulators such as (I forgot the name) one of the emulators for the zxspectrums that allows mapping keyboard keys

          System: Raspberry 3 Model B, RetroPie 4.2.1

          Documentation solves many problems: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/
