Mapping Enter to button 1 question

[CalmGamer]

I’m going to remap my Mame and retroarch keys for a 4 player panel.

Is there any potential issues with mapping the enter key as player 1 button 1 within big box or the emulators?

At the moment I have an admin button dedicated to enter but this would free up that and make the controls more streamlined. 
 

Thanks

As long as you remap any emulators that by default already have a mapping for the Enter key first, it shouldn't be a problem. (Specifically in MAME)

(I don't know if LB uses Enter by default for anything. in BB you can set your keyboard mappings, so no issue there)

Fixed confusing line.

Enter and Exit are used to go into and out of menus, just didnt know if this would cause issues if i assign this button to a game button. 

im assuming all the keystrokes will go to the emulator and none will be passed to LB/BB, so as long as enter isnt assigned to anything in the emulators i should be good ?

 

Thanks

What you map to BigBox as Enter and Exit to function within BigBox will not be affected or affect anything in the emulator. You should be fine. I have my P1 Start mapped as Enter in BigBox and as Select when in RA menus and no issues.
