I have a new issue and it's a weird one that I term as a "Phantom Short". I'm still using Bucky O'hare to test the buttons with. Again I'm a total idiot when it comes to wiring things so explain in small words please.

Here's the issue(three button X-men layout): the 3P start, 4p Start and the mutant power/special weapons button on 4P do not work when you first turn on the machine. Then I put it into test mode and the 4P special weapons/mutant power button starts working but the 4P start button is now recognized as the same function as the 4P special weapons/mutant power button(both buttons do the same thing). The 3P start button still does nothing.

My game is playable now but this crazy short is gonna annoy me unless I fix it...

Look at the wires going to the player 1, player 2, etc and make sure the others have the black wire going to the same connection on all other player controls. If that black (ground) wire is going to a non common it will do strange things. Also look for anything that will push on any of the connections when control panel is closed.
