Quoted from bobukcat:I don't understand this at all, are you suggesting a loop ramp that's the same level as the playfield and sitting in front of the kickback facing the flippers? The ball would hit it all the time. I guess I'm not picturing your idea.
Probably just using the kickback aimed another way with a loop ramp. Similar to this homebrew on the left hand side.
