And even more notification work They can now display progress (indeterminate only) - so they have a spinner and don't have a timer. Unrelated to that, clicking can be disabled - and that can be used to have much nicer screenshot feedback - screenshots can take a while to save, so previously there could be a delay while it's happening

Some progress with controls remapping. I posted about it in the quoted post, but the progress there has been slow because I seem to be getting a creative block? the programming equivalent of that every time I set to work on it. So I thought about why it may be, and a part of it is honestly that the system I have is too complicated and I need to simplify it, so it goes: - Keyboard key enum has a none value now, so I can have a built-in unset state - I got rid of global controllers and merged Atari switches, SMS/SG-1000 pause button and Nintendo DS and WonderSwan shortcuts into the main controllers - and restricted them to player 1 only - I got rid of separate config names for controllers, config name and controller id are the same thing now. Granted, it was only there to avoid duplicating one specific config, but hey - I refactored a few things After that, I tried to implement just enough of it that I actually have a tangible, working prototype. So - I do now. The backend can save controls (already could load them), reset them, and it notifies about the changes. So - well, it works. I have configurable keyboard controls. Very incomplete, but I can technically remap things, and from now on it should be easier, since it's working and I can test it and, importantly, can motivate myself because there's a glimpse of a working feature rather than endless scaffolding. For example, I took PlayStation controller and remapped it to make Doom use PC-like controls and it just worked. I posted about it here, but let's have it in the main thread instead. Same with N64 for Doom 64 - it also works. RE: https://mk.nyaa.place/notes/aiccxocrk2xk01qd
