I've heard people say that the PBL Scolari springs cause "too much machine gunning." What does this lingo mean? I tried the pull up/shorten spring trick to increase tension and still, most of the time the Scolari targets only go down is with backhand shots.
Quoted from bhwolf:Basically means the spring is too strong so the target can't stay up (or the ledge is too weak/broken), as the spring pulls it back down right away. The game will try to pop it back up over and over again, hence the machine-gunning.
If you shortened the spring already, you can try shortening it more, or just wait for it to break in. I'd say go ahead and shorten it a few more rings...
Gotcha. It helped! What does the other spring on the assembly do? Trying to locate the Scolari drop target Assembly in the manual as well for reference.
Not sure why, but it appears that this game has been really scarring my pinballs at an overly advanced rate. Like, a week in home use play and they're already toast. I recently fixed Scolari targets so they don't stand like bricks. Wondering if anyone else had any other suggestions to dial in the game so the balls don't get roughed up. Thanks
Quoted from NimblePin:Mylar everything metal that the ball touches.
Cute, but need an answer from someone else who has had and overcome a similar experience in their game.
Quoted from Mando:I would say install all the "airball protectors" out there, and use some good pinballs like the ones from PBL. Are you using the stock balls?
I put in balls from Marco. The stock balls didn't last long either.
