New STpremium owner - love how smooth this game shoots.

A few questions...

Is there a way to prevent the other shots from lighting up in a mode? I want the shots for the modes to be the only shots allowed for the mode. I noticed that the other shots light up after a certain time and the mode becomes “any shot will do”-ish’ - I would like to prevent this from happening. A setting that I’m overlooking perhaps?

I noticed there are factory settings for “easy” “medium” and “hard” but I can’t find an explanation of what the difference between the settings are. Just shorter timers??

TIA!

Quoted from sethi_i:

I think you're talking about the "Final Shot" on a mode. Each mode has a timer and set shots. Once the mode timer reaches zero in each mode, a "Final Shot" sequence is activated. All shots are active, but one is flashing (or alternating colors, I can't really remember which). That shot is worth double toward medals, I believe.
This "any shot will do" sequence should only last for one shot.

I know what you mean about the Final Shot - I’m familiar with this feature.

On my machine, mode X has shots A, B, and C lit (for example). If I don’t hit shot A, B, or C in so many seconds, the other shot lights start blinking until eventually, all shot lights are blinking. And no, I’m not talking about the multi-ball where the red flashes with the mode colors.

I’ll have to check the code version.

Quoted from pinheadpierre:

This is normal per my experience. Not sure if it is adjustable. Playing well stops it from happening

Well, that’s just not going to happen.... but I do have a little time on my hands to practice.

Quoted from J85M:

Quality will be the difference, Stern games from 4 years ago where bulletproof, games from the last year or two are built with inferior materials and cheaper mechs. I’d always go for an older/original release over a newer vault.

It’s interesting... I just added a ST prem (2013) to the collection. ST plays like butter and the main thing I notice about it vs my JP prem (2019) is the ST is way quieter and the playfield is amazing - not dimple free, but really great shape. It’s like the ST was just made with better components and/or tighter tolerances.

Quoted from JonCBrand:

Looking for a ball recomendation for my Prem
Ocasionally I will get 2 stuck in the vengence and also have trough issues with them not rolling down.
Thinking the balls are getting magnetized
Only 250 plays on it.

Mine was doing this also. I went into the settings and disabled the magnet then made the locks all virtual, also in settings. Not the best solution but it works.
