"In some cases" is pretty broad but I attached an inp file where I passed the 2nd boss without a problem.

an inp file when you don't would probably be more useful ;)

(that said, I think the only way to be sure about this one is if the MCU gets dumped.. the protection is rather involved, it's amazing phil managed to figure it out at all)

yeah, apparently it didn't happen every time tho.. so it will need to be tested a few times.

played through djboy and djboyj twice each, couldn't get this bug to occur. Since nobody has reported this bug since the MCU was emulated in 139 and even the tester who reported it seemingly hasn't been able to make it occur again ( else one would have think he'd have stated that in his last note ) it may be safe to assume this bug has been in fact fixed.

only occur at certain times, in 2 or 3 times to me happened, but is very rare times

using cheats may be a possible cause

This may have changed since I first became a tester years ago, but I remember there being a rule about bugs occurring while using MAME cheats not being reportable as they alter the game in ways it was not meant to be altered.

If that rule still stands, and this 'bug' only occurs when using cheats, then i'm not sure this report should stay open. Can you have this issue occur at all when you do not use cheats, Fortuna?

The original OP didn't state one way or the other, but you are correct - no cheats to duplicate a bug is the rule.

I play this game every so often, and have played it a few times since 0.139 and have never encountered this bug. Given that and other reports, I'm marking this one Resolved.
