First one just uses whatever is read in the inputs, second one
simulates clutch lock as in a real car.
On the arcade cabinet(goes for Ridge Racer), the clutch isn't mechanically
or electronically connected to the shifter. The clutch pedal simply connects
to a microswitch. The shifter itself is basically a loose 8-way joystick with
a panel on top to restrict movement. There is no software-controlled lock,
maybe magnets.
TODO:
- check clutch lock via real HW, and get a way to lock current gear via
MAME's input system;
- Custom part #;
- Better way to lock current gear via MAME's input system; no clutch involved
- gear output for artwork system;
