      Hi,
      I've Xeno Crisis, a twin stick shooter, running on the Genesis emu via Retroarch and Retropie.

      The game is currently configured to use the buttons of the six button pad as the fire directions, but I would like to use the other stick on my control panel, currently configured as Player 2.

      Is there a way to map these buttons to the second retropad?

      Thanks

        Not that I know of, RetroArch doesn't have the ability to map multiple retropads to a single player, it's 1 pad = 1 player.

          @ciderman As a workaround, you could make a dedicated control panel and wire the microswitches of its second stick to the connectors for the respective buttons of the first stick.
