OpenBOR doesn't let me execute the ultimate move pressing a button

[Steven1985]

Hi, in Super Final Fight Gold when I play with Cody, I execute the special moves pressing a button but OpenBOR doesn't let me do it with the ultimate move.

In the text of Cody there was this:
com  d f a freespecial2
com  d u a freespecial3
com  f f a freespecial4
com  d f d f a    freespecial5 

freespecial 2 , 3 , 4 are the special moves of Cody that I modified so:
com a2 freespecial2
com a3 freespecial3
com a4 freespecial4

but if I put  com a5 freespecial5 that is the ultimate move of Cody OpenBor doesn't run giving me this error:
Fatal Error in load_cached_model, file: data/chars/cody/cody.txt, line 39, message: Invalid freespecial command

Why?

a5 or Attack button 5 doesn't exist as far as I'm aware.

No, it does not.

Steven1985,

OpenBOR has four direction inputs, and six action inputs per player. Two of the action inputs are mapped to Jump and Special/Blocking. The other four are "attack" buttons. The first is mapped to Attack 1. The other three are not mapped to anything.

That's the default setup. You can override it and make the buttons do whatever you want. You could even use script to trigger actions from the Screenshot or Start buttons., but you can't assign actions to a button that doesn't exist.
