Here is my suggestion. A switch that activates when a particular button on the controller is pressed. For example, a switch that activates something when the left d-pad button is pressed, to control something in a level. For example a spaceship at the bottom of the screen. The custom controls would replace the default controls, however the switch would have a zone that determines where it is active, and when you are outside of that zone the controls will work normally again, therefore not interfering when a player is at the scoreboard, or outside of the area where the control scheme should be active. For example, you have four of these switches, one for d-pad left, one for d-pad right, one for d-pad up, one for d-pad down, one for cross, one for square. You wire up these switches so that the d-pad controls a small spaceship at the bottom of the screen (d-pad left goes left, d-pad right goes right, etc.), you connect square to an emitter on the small spaceship that emits a bullet, and you connect cross to an emitter that emits another kind of bullet (a bomb, for example). Then, you have the basis for a scrolling arcade shooter. This would also be handy for controlling vehicles, or puzzles.

This would probably be to complicated and might confuse younger players.

Something similar was suggested previously : https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=t=9606 Yeah, but in that thread he describes a switch that, when you PRESS a button, something happens, but when you HOLD it down, nothing happens. My idea is a switch that gives a on/off/direction/speed signal for as long as the button is HELD.

That would completely ruin the creativity of people who found ways to get around it.
