New code update for AC/DC
V1.70.0 - Feb 12, 2018
======================
- Jam Multiball, Album Multiball, and Tour Multiball were not adding
the points scored from super jackpots to the total. These have been
corrected.
- Improved the lockout of the VIP PASS when a ball is served so there
is less chance that the player accidentally uses up a VIP PASS when
launching the ball.
- Reduced JAM MULTIBALL initial # of shots from 6 to 5.
- Reduced JAM MULTIBALL increment # of shots from 2 to 1.
- Reduced JAM MULTIBALL super jackpot lit initial # from 6 to 5.
- Reduced JAM MULTIBALL super jackpot lit increment # from 2 to 1.
- Reduced TOUR MULTIBALL initial # of shots from 8 to 7.
- Reduced TOUR MULTIBALL increment # of shots from 2 to 1.
- Reduced TOUR MULTIBALL super jackpot lit increment # from 2 to 1.
- Reduced ALBUM MULTIBALL increment # of shots from 2 to 1.
- Reduced ALBUM MULTIBALL super jackpot lit increment # from 2 to 1.
- Changed the rule for the DEVIL HORNS. Instead of lighting all 3 shots
at once, they are lit in order: BELL, RIGHT LOOP, LEFT LOOP. Once the
LEFT LOOP shot is made to complete the sequence, the Tunes N Stuff lamp
is lit to collect "STUFF".
- Added STUFF to Tunes N Stuff:
- 2X DEVIL HORNS (multiplies the lit DEVIL HORN shots by 2).
- HOLD BONUS
- 7,500,000 POINTS
- AWARD BELL SHOT WITH V.I.P. PASS
Using the VIP PASS button also awards all features available
at the BELL (which includes advancing the PLAYFIELD MULTIPLIER).
(The Premium/LE will swing the bell using the BELL MAGNET.)
- OI MANIA (7,500 PER SWITCH. OI!)
- 10,000,000 POINTS
- EXTRA BALL
- Increased DEVIL HORNS value.
- Changed the presentation of the lights for Tunes N Stuff:
- JUKEBOX horns blinking = JUKEBOX lit to change a song.
- Tunes N Stuff light BLINKING = JUKEBOX lit for Tunes N Stuff.
(If the JUKEBOX is lit ONLY to change a song, then the
Tunes N Stuff light will be SOLID.)
- Added a setting to have the target lamps NOT blink when not scored.
(This is now the default behavior.)
- Removed the LEFT LOOP shot from always being lit for the WAR MACHINE
mode. Completing the spinner during WAR MACHINE will re-light the LEFT
LOOP WHITE ARROW SHOT for a much lower value.
- Game over effects are killed when entering test mode.
- Increased FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK mode cannon shot and playfield shot
scores.
- Increased the scores that can be collected from the cannon for starting
multiballs (JAM, ALBUM, TOUR).
- Changed the BACK IN BLACK rule so it is more interesting, valuable,
and potentially takes less work to get the WHITE ARROW NOTE shots lit:
- Added a moving target that cycles through AC/DC from bottom to top.
- Hitting the moving target lights all of the WHITE ARROW NOTE shots.
- The shot that corresponds to the moving target will be +1X what
it was before, or 2X if it was not available before; the previously
multiplied shot will revert back to 1X.
- (A)C/DC - LEFT LOOP.
- A(C)/DC - LEFT RAMP.
- AC(/)DC - BELL.
- AC/(D)C - RIGHT RAMP.
- AC/D(C) - RIGHT LOOP.
- Changed the LET THERE BE ROCK rule so it is more interesting, valuable,
and potentially takes less work to get the WHITE ARROW NOTE shots lit:
- Added a moving target that cycles through ROCK from top to bottom
and back again.
- Hitting the moving target lights all of the WHITE ARROW NOTE shots.
- The shot that corresponds to the moving target will be +1X what
it was before, or 2X if it was either 1X or not available before:
- (R)OCK - LEFT LOOP.
- R(O)CK - LEFT RAMP.
- RO(C)K - RIGHT RAMP.
- ROC(K) - RIGHT LOOP.
- Once ROCK is spelled, the BELL shot will light for the highest
multiplier value advanced to on the WHITE ARROW NOTE shots during
the spell out.
- Changed the update priority of the background lamp effect for the
FIRE BUTTON so it will run first and not be excluded by in-game lamp
effects that cannot run.
- Increased the ROCK N ROLL TRAIN combo score.
- Increased T.N.T. scores.
- Fixed an issue where fading the music volume would cause the music to
cut out entirely.
- SLINGSHOT types were not being flagged as such; this has been corrected.
- Synced knocker to run with replay/special effects.
- Fixed player up effects so they wait for speech and don't end on a
blank frame.
- Fixed switches from showing up in the tech alert when they are not
broken. These include:
TOURNAMENT START BUTTON
START BUTTON
LEFT COIN
CENTER COIN
RIGHT COIN
FOURTH COIN
FIFTH COIN
DEDICATED #6, #7, #8, #14, #16, #20 (NOT USED)
TILT PENDULUM
SLAM TILT (OPTIONAL)
TICKET NOTCH
TEST ESCAPE, MINUS, PLUS, ENTER
DIP #1 - #8
- Added speech for HSTD enter initials timeout.
- Combos were not clearing a counter properly, which caused incorrect
combo values to carry over to other players. This has been corrected.
- Corrected the names of the diagnostic buttons (these are translated
now).
- Shot multiplier for banked targets reworked to allow additional targets
at the multiplied value (during a grace period of ~0.25 seconds).
- Shot-multiplied spinner values via SUPER LANES during ENCORE, WAR
MACHINE, and regular play may have terminated prematurely (typically
during multiball) and some spins during a single spinner session may not
have been awarded at the multiplied value. This has been corrected.
- Fixed a bug with the ramp standup targets that would cause the score
for completing the targets to be one increment too high.
- Changed "VOLUME" to "ATTENUATION".
- Cannon eject switch default is NOT accessible. Accessibility is set
when the right ramp diverter is activated. This prevents the cannon
eject switch from being marked bad when the ball cannot get there.
- Changed the layout of the pop bumper display effect so the pop bumper
value is explained better, also to not have two scores next to each
other.
- Added a lamp effect for completing the pop bumpers.
- Any cannon eject switch activity will now release the right ramp
diverter, to further prevent two balls from getting stuck in the cannon.
