additionally airbustr after hitting key 5 on keyboard adds 6 credits. Clones works fine.

I didn't try bwing, but that's probably related to PORT_VBLANK.

airbustr: If anything, it's a bit of 5+6 coining (this bug) and 04805. There is a dip that changes "Coin Mode"... if you choose "Mode 2", you get 1 credit per.

bwing does behave like others I noticed with Difficulty coining. Wasn't Aaron supposed to fix it globally since he obviously broke it globally?

Reopening this.
As more reports roll in, I need a placemark for these. Per game fixing I don't think is the answer since behavior seems to be busted globally.. they can be fixed globally.

Great, I've spotted hvyunit.c - also 6 credits at one coin but I guess it does not matter now.

Coining is fixed now but still some games have dipswitches reverted. Should be posted as bug?

Battle of Atlantis has coinage probably wrong slot A gives 6 slot B gives 1. Should be A - 1 B -6 I think.

Besides one game still has difficulty coining up - Hyper Crash (only version D). After changes to dipswitches responsible for coins it starts to work again.

set atantis seems to look fine here. The dips show 1/6 for A (coin 1 - "5") and 1/1 for B (coin 2 - "6")

hcrash, on the other hand, seems to have a bit an of issue with coins which is unrelated to this bug or cause. It might need more coin_impulse or something else. Before we make another bug report, let's see if it can be fixed since it's now known.

Quite strange, it is not expected by default to get 6 credits just by one coin by default but in second slot 1 coin and 1 credit. For bigger credits almost always second slot was used.
