Quoted from Pimp77:

Yes, that's what I meant...but that's not all of the puzzle because that doesn't work always.

They all have to be done by you, spotted ones don't count. If some qualifiers are spotted for you, you need to consume then then do it yourself for it to count. Similarly, all need to be consumed and relit after starting the roving drop target to get it again.

Quoted from Pimp77:

Hmmm, well how do you get one spotted?

Default settings actually spot 1 for you at ball start, but that was changed later so you may or may not have that set.

Quoted from Pimp77:

Playing a mode doesn't require ALL to be collected again for the moving drop, does it?

All 6 have to be lit at once. Other than that, after you get it, ou do have to earn all of them again, meaning you have to use them up first.

Quoted from konghusker:

I'm surprised due to the whole patent issue that other games dealt with apparently.

Patents expire...

Quoted from meSz:

Also, for the BT dongle is there somewhere else to plug this in so you can have the WiFi and BT working?

Just get one of those cheap Amazon USB hubs. We use them all the time.

#10378 2 years ago
Quoted from fridgejam:

After what appears to be a short which I think was caused by a loose 12v wire that connects to the led strip behind the back box, the entire game crashed and rebooted, resulting in an issue where now the playfield insert lights are sequencing super fast in attract mode (at a guess 5x the normal speed) - example can be viewed here - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ujvx656m7hxab9e/IMG_1482.MOV?dl=0

This looks normal to me. Other than whatever that flashing white light is.

#10389 2 years ago
Quoted from Vernisious:

I know you need to qualify all of the modes by hitting the shots you said but there must be other stipulations.

I know you guys largely figured it out, but technically the rule is that free spotted ones need to be consumed and then re earned by you. You don't need to consume anything you earned yourself, until after the traveling extra ball. After the drop target round, all items must be consumed and re earned.

But the harder difficulty makes it easier to keep track of.

Quoted from Travahontas:

It came with a center post between the flippers. Some of the expert players like the challenge of taking it out. I don't haha.

Just don't complain about long ball times with that post in there!! (Not specifically directed at quotee.)
