Known Issues

Auto-Resume After Write Operations ✅ FIXED

Issue: VICE emulator pauses (enters monitor mode) after write operations via the binary monitor protocol, and the auto-resume feature is not working as expected.

Status: ✅ FIXED (as of v0.6.9)

Solution: The auto-resume feature now detects when VICE is paused by checking the jiffy clock (memory addresses $A0-$A2). If the jiffy clock hasn't changed between two reads, VICE is paused and an ExitCommand is automatically sent to resume execution.

Previous Details:

  • When performing memory writes or register updates through ViceMCP, VICE enters monitor mode and pauses execution
  • The auto-resume feature attempts to send an ExitCommand after successful write operations
  • Despite sending the exit command successfully, VICE remains paused
  • Users must manually call continue_execution to resume VICE

How it was fixed:

  • Implemented jiffy clock detection to determine if VICE is paused
  • Auto-resume now checks after EVERY successful command (except ExitCommand itself)
  • Added proper timing delays to ensure reliable detection
  • VICE now stays running after all operations
