  RetroFlag Pi-Case Safe Shutdown (by crcerror)

I am trying to implement [this script made for the Retroflag cases](https://github.com/crcerror/retroflag-picase). The reset button and LED (with resistor) work perfectly, but the power button does not. It causes a kernel panic when I hit the button (though the pie does shut off at least) I know why it doesn't work (I think). As I do not actually have a retroflag case, [I used this helpful comment on the Retropie forums to determine which GPIO pins are used for the hookups in the script.](https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/23102/exit-roms-via-gpio/7) However, I did not do anything with the "shutdown feedback" pin that was mentioned, as I have no idea how it is supposed to be hooked up and to what. Can anyone help me understand how this part functions in the retroflag case? Does it go to my power button or something else I don't have?
