Quoted from OutpostKodelia:

It's announcement day!!!
Here at Outpost Kodelia, we found ourselves getting tired of having to strain to see which shots were lit in the inner loop. Heck, we didn't even realize there were shot lights for the inner loop for almost two weeks into owning the game! Apparently no one at Stern is under 6'4" so they must've thought it was totally fine to hide those lights where the rest of us can't see them, left to be shocked to discover that there's actually a third skill shot, or to wonder where that last mode shot is hanging out! Well, with the magic of 3D printing and the convenience of rapid PCB prototyping and production, we bring you our solution to this issue, The Interactive Rush Inner Loop Status Duplicator 3000 for People That Aren't Very Tall! (Let's just say we're still working on a good name for this one...)
Using professional hardware, this mod intercepts the signals being sent to the four inner loop status lights (RGB arrow, RGB record, combo 3, and combo 2) and passes them along to a compact custom PCB to replicate the light based information where you can actually see it! The whole package is dressed up in a shiny purple and gold case that matches the color and artistic cues from the playfield perfectly! Installation involves unplugging and plugging in a few standard connectors, routing the wire up to the top of the playfield, mounting the display with existing playfield screws and nuts, and zip tying a few things together.
Please note that pictures here are of the prototype. We've already made a few tweaks based on what we learned installing the prototype that will make it even better and prettier (render shows latest design changes). Final product will also have cleaner and more finished looking above-the-playfield wiring than what you see in these photos.
So what say you? Do you like what you see? Who wants one? If the reaction is strong, we'll probably open a preorder in the NinjaCamp store as part of our ongoing partnership. To make the final product, we have to submit a new order for the final production PCBs and we'll need to know how many to order to get this started. It will also give us the time we'll need to print the parts and hand wire the wiring harnesses.

Preorder in! Was there a plan to switch the places of the 2 and 3 to match the order on the playfield?

Quoted from OutpostKodelia:

To clarify, oliviarium, my wife and partner in everything, suffered a major stroke last night. I've been at the hospital all day and will be for the next day or two.
Needless to say, most orders won't be going out for a bit (Olivia is our shipping and inventory manager, for all intents and purposes) and, with me out, more than half of the NinjaCamp production capacity is down.
The good news is that Olivia is recovering well and her outlook is promising, but damage was definitely done and it's going to be a long road no matter what.
So thank you all for understanding as Olivia and I work through this. We'll get back to bringing you all the good stuff as soon as we can!
Thank you,
Kaydee

I am so sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with you both.

Hi folks! Happy to announce our solution to the plunger problem, the Scooby Doo Plunger Stabilizer!! Check it out: https://pinside.com/pinball/market/shops/1326-ninjacamp-mods/09405-scooby-doo-plunger-stabilizer
Go from having half your mech completely unsupported and free to deform:

... To having a stabilized plunger that can take the abuse!
[quoted image]
Please read the notes in the listing carefully... this won't necessarily fix a deformed plunger all on its own, but it will stabilize it so that alignment fixes STAY fixed instead of having your plunger failing again and again right after you just fixed it.

Great work! Would love a kit for the left light board to allow easier outlane post moves.
