Hey Eli,
I have a question regarding my kit. I noticed in attract mode, the kit will actually shut off after a certain amount of time, then kick back on after about a minute or two. Is this normal behavior or is my kit overheating or something?

Also, do you plan on releasing the code as open source fro customization any time in the future?

Awesome job with it BTW. I love my kit.

Thank you,
--Scott

Quoted from ecurtz:

It's supposed to fade out and run the attract less and less often if it isn't being played for power saver but that code wasn't really tested.
The microcontroller code probably won't be open source as there are complicated support issues with that, but I still plan on doing the customization through a web page for setting your own colors and effects for the various modes. Not quite sure when I'll be getting back to that.

Oh ok, that makes sense. I definitely agree that there could be a major support issue with the microcontroller code as I have written a bunch myself (AVR). Do you happen to have a version of the code that does not shut down during attract mode? That would be my only request as a few days ago I walked into my gameroom to show my wife the awesome new ramps and they were off. I thought I broke them...

Thanks man,

Hey Eli,
I still am amazed at how awesome this kit turned out. Just curious if you had any plans to release an update without the powersaver in attract mode. Please let me know. Thank you!

All I want is a version of the code that does not turn off during attract mode.

Will you open source the code at any time?

Thanks!
