Hi folks,

What with kids and a home machine, I often find a need to "reset" the pinball machine.

Sometimes the kids hit "start" too many times. Sometimes they hit "start" when they were supposed to stop playing. Sometimes they get in trouble during a game.

The only way I know of stopping a game in progress is to turn the machine off and on again. Yet, that seems harsh on the machine. I don't like to power cycle electronics.

Is there some way to add a "reset button" to the machine that I can push to tell it to go directly into "Game Over" mode? I'd obviously mount this somewhere unlikely to get accidentally pushed.

Thanks!
