Battletoads / Double Dragon: BTDD - Ship Control

This hack alters the control of the spaceship in stage 4-1 so that you can move it forward by holding "UP" on the d-pad as well as by holding "A".
You still need to use "A" for the turbo move: hold "UP" and tap "A" a few times.

For some reasons, despite the rest of the spaceship's movement, including going backwards, being on the d-pad, and despite having to use "UP" to move the ship forward in 4-2; in stage 4-1 "UP" did nothing. Well, not anymore!
