Quoted from Jimmyhonda:

Hello, not sure if anyone else has had this issue, but the auto plunger barely shoots the ball to the upper magnet? Any suggestions for a fix? Thanks!!

Is it launching clean, like a lack of power, or rattle it’s way up like something isn’t aligned correctly?

Quoted from Rpabech:

Just join the party yesterday. Awesome pin.
Having few issues thou:
1 - my pin was NIB with the 1.15 code (is this the latest? Pinside shows 1.10 as latest which does not make sense)

By all that is hopeful and holy, I really, really want to see an update that eliminates the uncollectible extra ball bug! This is a great nugget, thanks for sharing!

Congratulations and enjoy the new machine, we love ours!

Quoted from Rpabech:

What you mean by the uncollectible extra ball bug? You mean that even when it is lit and you hit that, you do not get an extra ball? On mine I never saw this happening. But I did not get that far yet
(high score 10M for now).

Yes, if you earn an extra ball, don’t collect it before you drain, the next ball still shows an extra ball light, but you can’t collect it… It’s a known, frustrating bug that’s been commented on in this thread many times, and many including myself, have registered it as a bug with Stern. If there is a new code release on your machine, I am hopeful they’ve corrected it.

There is both an airball protector for the ‘FOUR’ targets, and a ball diverter that prevents an airball from rolling across the plastics to the left outlane, that goes over the ‘FAB’ targets. (Post #585 for pic) Make sure you have both.

Quoted from stevevt:

Did you change a default setting to allow extra ball memory (or something with a similar name/concept)? If yes, then the bug is in that setting.

Yep

Quoted from StoneyCreek:

What version code are you running that claims to fix the extra ball bug? When I light EB and drain, it does not stay lit for my next ball.

My point is there hasn’t been a fix of the bug. You have to adjust settings to carry over the EB, and then when you do……you can’t collect it!! That’s the bug, it’s been documented and called out several times in this owners thread… hopefully the 1.15 code on new machines means there is a fix…because the public code is obviously 1.10…

Looking for a sanity check... updated to the new code with no problems... I do love the new Extra Ball light show when you collect an EB. I updated and kept my settings to allow EB’s to carry over, and that seems to work now and was fixed in the new code.

However, I still have occasions where an EB is lit, I rollover the lit inlane but don’t collect the EB. At first I wasn’t sure and no one here has posted anything, but after a longer play session, I know I saw this happen at least 2-3 times.

Anyone else seeing this in the new code release?

Just installed these playfield protectors for the apron from Apron Envy. The purple matches the titan rings very nicely. It will absolutely stop the rubbing that occurs. Pics included and you can see the small rubber washers I was using previously.

Install was literally 5 minutes, order and ship was really quick. Now that I have seen them and installed, Star Wars, Kiss, AIQ, and Rush are absolutely next to order.

Thanks Apron Envy!

Edit: yes…I also see that my flipper rings are dirty… no need to comment

Quoted from RebelGuitars:

To me that's no different than changing your settings to a 5 or 10 ball game. I see the fun side of it, but I find it the opposite of challenging. I don't think you're helping to improve your skills.
The custom songs packages are cool too.

For some reason to me game setting snobbery is like a fart in an elevator...sure you can but everyone thinks it smells...so should you?
