There was a request to fix something about the menu shortcut; do we have a fix for that already?

I didn't write anything at the time. You could move the menu shortcut check to the top, right before save/loadstate, in gamemode.asm. Or you could put this untested code at line 1714 of menu.asm. (or both?)

Edit: Added the branch to .exit
Edit2: Got around to testing this and it needed more work. Made a pull request to your fork idlechild#1

    ; disallow inputs that match the menu shortcut
    LDA [!DP_CtrlInput] : CMP.w #!sram_ctrl_menu : BEQ .store
    CMP !sram_ctrl_menu : BNE .store
    %sfxfail()
    ; write code to set cursor position to 0 (menu shortcut)
    LDA #$0000 : STA !ram_cm_stack_index : STA !ram_cm_ctrl_last_input
    BRA .exit

  .store
    ; Store controller input to SRAM

Alright that's the last of the infohud modes that needed some improvements. Sheesh that shinetune bug in the last number has been out there for a while and ended up being simple to account for. I'm not sure it's perfect but it's definitely improved.

So it's just tasdance support. As soon as that's done (or I give up on it), then I think 2.6.1 will be ready to ship. Any objections?

I'm going to test it a bit more in an hour, but it is otherwise ready for release. I'll likely release it later tonight.

I haven't caught up with the last few commits yet but I'm good with it either way
