Had so many issues on my DILE (trapdoor, phone, drone, are parts replaced and so many adjustments too) that I think JJP has a work axis to do: engineering mechs. When you see what they cut off on POTC, they need to improve their engineering department.
Quoted from TheLaw:Only had 1 JJP and it is DI which is pretty notorious for issues.
i think jjp will be expected to turn on their next game and restore its image. Mech issues, that had ruined my DI experience (with that stupid SIM card shot) and removing cool mechs for lack of reliability on POTC are commercially bad.
Whatever their next game, jjp will need to get it right with respecting its trademark, innovation, creativity, quality built. Code can’t save everything. Cool and original main toy is a must in my book, it is the identity of the game.
Quoted from jgentry:Potc is still absolutely loaded. The game is stuffed with mechs and shots. Unfortunately it is being shipped without proper qc and it's like groundhogs day.
In my opinion, there is nothing in this game that I have never seen before. Nothing is impressing me. The mini playfield works like IJ built in 1993 if I do not mistake. What else?
Quoted from jgentry:The mini playfield works absolutely nothing like IJ.
They couldn't be much more different.
So how it moves?
Quoted from jgentry:It rocks back and forth like a ship. It's not a player controlled rock like IJ poa which is nothing but a player controlled back and forth to hit switches or a hole. Potc rocks, has 2 flippers, targets, 2 spinners, a cannon feed shot, etc.
Does it also move from side to side?
The way how the mini playfield is loaded is just an implementation. The main idea here is that the mini playfield is moving.
Édit: you said it moves back and forth like a ship. Does it give sea sick? 
Quoted from Allibaster:Take out the trapdoor, phone, and drones and you basically have the equivalent of a Stern Premium/LE.... maybe not even then.
The more mechs and toys you put into a game, the more issues and adjustments you're going to have.
Jjp is not Stern and has no interest to become as Stern.
Quoted from jgentry:It's not player controlled. It's also a real playfield with flippers and shots. IJ poa is sort of fun but it doesn't usually work right and it's just a gimmick. I'm not seeing how you are comparing the two. I can only assume you have not played potc as it nothing like IJ.
Sure. I would not ask you how it moves if I have ever played it.
For me, The original idea is a mini playfield that moves, whatever you can controlled it or not, you implement it or not.
I understand they use this idea, it fits the theme
