Description

Hi,
in mapping menu (PORT 1 CONTROLS), we have the buttons :

  • strafe left
  • strafe right
  • strafe +
  • strafe -
    But there is not a strafe button. It is a button we have to maintain with a direction to strafe in this direction.
    For example, if i maintain the strafe button and i go left, the guy have to strafe left.
    In PrDoom we have this button for example so it could be possible in RetroArch and in this port too.
    Thank you

Research direction

Start by locating the mapping menu implementation for PORT 1 CONTROLS and inspect how the existing strafe left, strafe right, strafe +, and strafe - actions are defined. Done means the menu exposes a strafe button whose held state combines with the movement direction to produce directional strafing.
