I'll try to re-create this fb post here (just a bit hard on my phone right now ;-)):

Just wondering what other people's experiences were like if they tried to configure the two main fire buttons on the original c64 joystick to do different tasks?
I was trying to configure one of them to be a jump button and the other to be a fire button, but the behaviour seems a little quirky.
If I make the left-button the jump, it behaves fine when pressed alone, but if I move and jump, it sometimes sporadically also triggers the fire action too.
If I make the right-button the jump, it again behaves fine when pressed alone, but if I move and jump, it immediately triggers the fire action and cuts the jump action off short. Also, if I move while firing, it jumps instead of fires
So I'm getting the impression the action of these buttons is intertwined in some way (in relation to movement), which might explain why in the diagram on their web-page, they implied some relationship between these two buttons.
