Last night I pulled out my RPI Jamma after years of being away from the hobby and I installed Apricade 3.x on my Pi3 B+.  I have a Dragon's Lair 2 cabinet that is gutted and been sitting for years waiting for me to restore it.  I decided rather than throwing at least $5k at it between monitor, boards, laser discs + player, maybe a dexter, etc that I would just install DL, DL2, SA, and TQ on this with a SDArcade style menu and run the cab with that.  I am expecting to use a Unico 26" Arcade LCD for it as a drop in replacement.

So after a little tinkering I got Daphne all running with the 4 games and downloaded video snaps for them.  When I load of Dragon's Lair to play though something seems off.   If is my memory failing me or is the scene sequencing off?   What I remember from the 80s was that when you died, you spawned again in the same room until you successfully completed it.  When I tried it this morning, anytime I died (A lot cause I suck) it is advancing to a new random room instead.  So which way is it supposed to be and if it's wrong, how can I fix that?
