Ok so he gives me permission to ask this. Basically the problem is: The script have a record mode. You push the record button (Button 5 in this case) move around and then, you can push Button 5 again for stop recording or Button 6 for replay. The thing that MAME register and save everything but not Button 4 for some unknown reason. All the syntax and names are 100% correct so we don't know where is exactly the problem. Sorry for the double post!

Thank you again! I have try print (joypad.get()) and I get the values, replaced those and now it is working! Now I am having a damn strange bug, but I will repost it when the lua hit the public (now it is a private beta).

I don't know for sure, but I think the button names for your game can be seen in the input config dialog that you can access by pressing Tab with the game running. Otherwise, here's some wiki originally written by mz and dammit: https://github.com/TASVideos/mame-rr/wiki/Lua-scripting-functions
Thank you. I tried with with the same names (P1 Button 1, Button 1, Button1, P1Button1, Button_1, and so on...) and none worked.

Hello community, A friend called peon2 is working on a training mode for jojoban with FBA, but I want to port it to MAME because it is more comfortable to me. The problem I am facing is that I don't know what the internal inputs names are for the buttons, How can I check it? I did check the .cfg, used it in the LUA script but still doesn't read the input (I want to show an image with the pressed key). Direction inputs are working, but the rest of the buttons (button 1, start, coin...) are not. Thank you!
