Home Brew Pinball Machine - Day 8

Added "Couch Potato" multiball function. Bouncy recliner catches the ball and smashing another ball into the recliner releases locked ball.

Ok, how or why does storing the ball enhance the play of the game?

@HaikuAutomation It's like any other lock in a pinball. Stall the ball somewhere and deliver another for multiball.

Are you going to put a solenoid under the recliner to actuate it at the end of the game?

A living room is a pretty novel design. It looks great!

Thats so cool! Can't wait to see the progress!

@HaikuAutomation It is like in Whirlwind Pinball, where you can store them in the cellar. :)

@jeriellsworth I meant in this game particularly. I'm fully aware of the utility of this gimmick however it needs to actually add to the overall game play and purpose. How does this work to enhance this game, alter/benefit the game play?

@mrtroy you also don't want 2 or balls to get stuck there with no way for the game to able to force it out.
