      Yepp. That describes what I saw exactly. But, again – I knew where I lost the ball. Can be hard to track during mb. I’m quite confident that it is what you’re seeing too. And, yes, I hope we can get a fix because this is a fantastic table.

        Dang, this is a cool release! I love not only the new graphics, but expecially those physics. :good:   :good:

        For all those like me, who prefer the light blueish version of cannons (actually I never saw the black ones in the wild), set their value “disable lighting” to 0.1 or lower. Same for the shuttle.

        STTNG_light_cannons

        And if you want some Star Fleet logo on the ball, take one of the images as decal (logo mode: off)
        Ok the ADD ANOTHER FILE didn’t work, so I place them here directly:

        A ball image, that goes well with it is this one (not by me):

                  Found a bug / ball stuck!

                  Played the v1.2 table on my VR headset many times. Awesome! Tried the v1.3 version today and its even nicer! Thanx again! However there’s a (big) problem where the ball can get stuck. Here’s a video to explain. It happens every few games and its quite the showstopper unfortunately. Please take a look at it:

                    I found out where the ball gets stuck. See my previous post. Its very unfortunate indeed because it really kills the game and it happens quite often. Is there any way to send the author an quick message? Im sure its an easy fix!

                      That is the most awesome ball stuck feedback I’ve seen to date m8 ! :good:

                      Should be easy to fix now – thanks a bunch. I should add though. I’ve played the table a lot since, and for some very odd reason it hasn’t happened to me since I reported. I know. It just doesn’t makes sense. :unsure:

                        Really cool video showing where the ball gets stuck. That is fantastic. Yes i absolutely have always loved this table.  Haven’t had a stuck ball on 1.2. Don’t think i have on 1.3 either, but haven’t put in the miles yet on 1.3 that i have on 1.2.  Hopefully its a easy fix.  Great Job creating the video.

                          Keep filling up the Borg ship by shooting balls in the right tunnel like in the video. Also when launching a new ball, choose light lock if available.  If played like this the stuck ball will likely happen.  Just also played it  on the normal desktop version 10.6.0 rev 3696 32 bit and it happened the first game I played.

                          My guess is the ball somehow sometimes gets past the detector where it should register as being locked in the Borg ship and thus keeps rolling  into the out-of-bounds area.

                           

                          /Update
                          Just got the ball stuck again! Desktop version 3758. After doing the game where you fly through the caves (I choose the 25 million instead of flying through btw) the ball gets ejected to the left side flipper. I then immediately shot the ball full speed into the lane leading to the Borg ship like in the video I posted. There it gets stuck.

                           

                          /Edit2
                          Also had it just happen when shooting the ball in that same far right lane where it flew straight through the Borg ship back onto the playing field. I’m not talking about the normal behavior where the Borg ship will eject a ball. This time the ball flew straight through in one go.

                          So anyway I was playing v1.2 for the moment and just had the ball permanently stuck on the right ramp entrance. The ball hit the entrance in a weird way, causing it to fly up a bit and land exactly on top of the elastic bumper that’s located left.  So this is on V1.2 but might also happen on V1.3

                            Found another bug. This time its just visually I think. One of the three round bumpers on the upper right section next to the Borg ship is missing a piece of metal. Interestingly enough you can see the piece falling down into the endless black void below the table when using VR glasses right after loading the table:

                              For the first issue, I recommend two changes on layer 3.

                              1. change the hit height of sw45 to 100.  My guess is, the ball is flying over this kicker.
                              2. add a wall just to the left of sw45 to prevent the ball from flying past.

                                For the bumper issue, set the “Ring Drop Offset” to zero for all three bumpers.  The one in question has a very high value set.

                                  For the ball stuck on the rubber.  Add a ramp over the rubber to deflect the ball away should it jump and land there.
