I want a "new" feature to all Stern games. When you hit both flipper buttons after the ball is lost you get your bonus etc. at once. No speech, no animation, no anything but the next ball.
I do not want to wait many seconds to get a new ball.
This is a very common feature in many many games. Why Stern has not included this feature to all of their new games.
I want the headphone feature to come right from the factory. It would cost them practically nothing if they ordered them from China. At least do it for LE's.

Or simply dropping the initial cost of a new pinball machine.....

This feature already exists on many Stern's. Looking around me, Ripley's and WOF both allow it, FGY doesn't. The reason you can't do it on some games (like FGY) is because the bonus countdown is a major production that includes things like flashers. Stopping in the middle of it wouldn't be clean.
Games are now starting to ship with Abort Animations set to 1. If you want all animations to abort when you hit the flippers, set Abort Animations to All. Besides bonus count, there are other animations that you still can't abort. I believe you can abort the bonus count on MET, but you can't abort the start of Sparky multiball.
