Summary 01900: All sets in kinst.c: Mass coin input disables dipswitch access, and thus further coin input during a fight.
Description This is for Mame builds 0.125u4 and the current version. All dipswitch access is disabled ( during a fight ) after a certain amount ( alot ) of coins are put in. No service buttons can be used, apart from reset ( f3 ) This completely disrupts two player mode.

Sometimes the music loops during a fight, only build 0.125u5.
Steps To Reproduce Put a few coins in, start a two player game, then add more coins, at some point coins will stop going in, and then service buttons are then disabled.

For the music loop in a normal fight.

In the future, do not consolidate bugs like this. It overly complicates the confirmation process and ability to divine the exact problem. For example, an input issue and a graphic issue should probably not be in the same bug - as the resolution might be different. With single bugs, there are no need to constantly adjust the summary or description with new details as discovery/confirmation is ongoing.

Split the input problems / graphics problem (put into new bug).
Baz, setting you as viewer until I can finish the split and properly test these. Please be patient.

Updated description.

The issue with the coins is valid. It seems when you continue a 2-player game when the credits are maxxed out (30) and then it comes to continue again - you cannot add additional credits and eventually, you'll run out coins and have to restart/reset to enter more. Other times, you can start a single plaer game with a normal 2 credits, play the game and lose - when continuing - you cannot enter coins (intermittently)

Cannot duplicate any issue in accessing the UI menu (tab) and adjusting dip switches or any other menu in UI. I also have no noticeable issue with the music. If anyone else can, please mention below.

Baz, changed back to Reporter status.

Its the service buttons, ie F2 and the volume ones - = , that get disabled. Sorry for the changes Tafoid just wanted to make sure you could find the problem with ease.
