Need Some Scripting Help for Kickers

[Siggi]

I need 2 kicker on my new mod, let’s name them Kicker_A and Kicker_B.

Kicker_A only should catch the ball and Kicker_B only should release it.

Important : Kicker_B should not catch the ball

I’d like to use it for a teleportation.

Can someone show me how to scrip it?

What kind of kicker and where its placed would be a factor that is relevant. Like is one a VUK, or a chute / scoop, etc.

This isn’t actual proper script…. but…

Sub KickerA_Hit

• destroyball when hit (with the right conditions met)
• Kicker B would createball (triggered only from Kicker A being Hit under the right conditions)
• then KickerB.solenoidpulse
• ballsonplayfield = “whatever you want to track them”

End Sub

The type of kicker plays a part in terms of if the ball can physically hit the B kicker. Maybe an invisible surface could block it until a ball is created and kicked out of B,etc.

I’m coming from FP more…but VP and FP are similar in this regard.

I need a normal kickout hole to catch the ball and Kicker_B sould be invissible.

This is a ROM using table but this kickers sould work without touching the ROM.

It’s needed just to transport the ball from A to B.

Look at the kickers in escape from the lost world.  The center of the playfield has a kicker that the ball enters and it kicks out another on the 2nd playfield

remove the enable  from kicker_B and nothing will happen if the ball hits it

 

 

Sub kickerA_Hit:
playsound “popper_ball”
me.DestroyBall
Me.TimerEnabled = 1
End Sub

sub kickerA_Timer
kickerB.CreateBall :
kickerB.Kick 180,2
Me.Timerenabled = 0
end sub

see a table you like help me find the resources so that I can finish it
