I think it's actually something that has been bothering me for years but I couldn't put my finger on what the cause was because it happened infrequently. Since switching to a different controller recently it's been happening a lot more.Sour wrote: ↑Thu Feb 02, 2023 10:00 pmThese have actually been the default shortcuts for rewind/fast-forward in all Mesen versions since 2017, so I'm mostly leaning towards keeping this as-is. It hasn't really been something that's been reported as an issue before, that I can recall. I'm a bit biased here since I use this fairly often (and since I inevitably end up breaking/resetting my settings constantly during dev, I'd need to re-configure these constantly if they weren't the default)
So, as an alternative request, it would be very good to have by default a visual indicator (like the pause indicator) for rewind and fast-forward.
The biggest problem I had with it is that I didn't know the cause. When I'm testing my game and a weird blip like this happens, I don't know if I've had a bug or not. I do remember sometimes seeing something strange like this happen and spending time trying to figure it out, but just seemed to go away when under observation. The reason I was able to report it this time was because I had several cases in one day of something "impossible" happening and I could tell for certain the emulator was doing it.
At least if there was a visual indicator that I had fast forwarded, I would have a chance to realize it wasn't a bug, and also it would help me understand how to turn it off.
