@Rens I think you're asking what parameters are passed to the onstart/onend scripts. It is just the four mentioned in the docs: $1 = system, $2 = emulator, $3 = rom path and $4 = command

https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Runcommand/#runcommand-scripts

Useful data are passed as arguments to these scripts:
$1 - the system (eg: atari2600, nes, snes, megadrive, fba, etc). $2 - the emulator (eg: lr-stella, lr-fceumm, lr-picodrive, pifba, etc). $3 - the full path to the rom file. $4 - the full command line used to launch the emulator.

You can see here, for example, the runcommand-onstart.sh and others are called with the user_script function:

user_script "runcommand-onstart.sh"

The function:

# calls script with parameters SYSTEM, EMULATOR, ROM, and commandline function user_script() { local script="$CONFIGDIR/all/$1" if [[ -f "$script" ]]; then bash "$script" "$SYSTEM" "$EMULATOR" "$ROM" "$COMMAND" </dev/tty 2>>"$LOG" fi }

The meat is here:

bash "$script" "$SYSTEM" "$EMULATOR" "$ROM" "$COMMAND" </dev/tty 2>>"$LOG"

As you can see, only the four parameters "$SYSTEM" "$EMULATOR" "$ROM" "$COMMAND" are passed to $script
