Is it possible to have dedicated Player controls?

Hello, I build arcade cabinets and I have a few in mind based on OpenBor games.  I am wondering if it is possible to have games use dedicated player controls like the actual arcade versions of say TMNT or Simpsons.

For example, if you walk up to the second controller and press start only Player 2 will be active.  As of now with most games I try if you press start on the second controller, Player 1 and 2 becomes active.  I"d like to do a few four player cabinets that have the traditional Player1, Player2, Player3, Player4 layout from left to right and if you are the only person playing, its usually natural to use one of the middle two controllers.

An option I"ve used in the past is to make the controls Player3, Player1, Player2, Player4 but I'm not a big fan of this layout.

I appreciate any help.

Welcome to the forum!

OpenBOR already defaults to activating only the specific player that presses start.

What you're most likely seeing is controls set up with an overlapping map to the start button. You should be able to take care of that in options.
