    Hello,

    I have a BSD and as you know it's brutally punishing. I started enjoy it much better with the plumb bob removed, in this way I can move the machine much more and I save many drains. But that is obviously cheating. The reason is that even with the plumb bob at the very bottom the tilt is still too sensitive, so I removed it.

    Is there a way to leave the plumb bob, but make it even less sensitive? So that the player is punished with a tilt for very strong motion, but still can apply quite a bit of shaking to interact with the machine. I guess it's needed to make it more heavy.
    Is there some standard or classic way to accomplish this?

    I haven't checked in the menu for BSD, but I know there is a setting to increase the number of warnings on other machines. Perhaps that'd work?

    You probably haven't adjusted it properly for the slope of the game. There should be a way to slide the ring, be sure the bob is centered when at rest.

    tried both already. max 10 warnings: ok, but not exactly as I wish.
    Bob centered at rest at the bottom, but still pretty sensitive.

    Just checked my Shadow and the tilt ring doesn't appear to be a WMS-specific part, just a piece of metal. I assume BSD would be the same, so just take it out and make a bigger one using the same material.

    Just drill some big drywall screws into the outlanes to prevent balls from draining and put a post between the flippers.

    Either that or play better!

    Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!
