Select Screen Join In

Join In is a feature added in 0.6.1 update. It lets P2 or P1 join on select screen by pressing Start instead of using dedicated 2P modes.

Setting up

This feature is screenpack/system.def controlled! New entries are added to the Select Info section.

pushstart.active

1 or 0. Enables or disables join in feature.

pushstart.text

Text data, defines what will display. \n means a line break.

pushstart.font

Font file to use. Seperate from system fonts.

pushstart.flash

1 or 0. Makes the text blink.

pushstart.color.r/g/b

0 to 255. Defines text color in RGB values.

pushstart.scale.x/y

Defines text size.

pushstart.p1/2.x/y

Defines text position for p1 and p2.

pushstart.p1.align

Defines the text alignment. Possible values:

• -1 - Right
• 0 - Center
• 1 - Left

pushstart.snd.group/index

Limitations

• Players can't enter once a character has been selected (same applies to trying to join when P1/P2 selected at least one character in simul/tag/turns mode)
