Post 1.4 Update Bugs
First of all, thanks for the update. Several good improvements ... no more beeping (THANK YOU!) ... left side gutter kickback seems to be fixed ... and thanks for the in-game guide. (I always wondered how many points were required after 10,000,000 to get another ball. But, 100,000,000?!? I'll never see that third free ball!)

Now for the bugs I've found so far ...

The ball fell into the launching plunger for the first time since I've been playing. Not a problem ... but when I launched the ball (for the second time) it made a strange and sudden left bounce and shot out sideways from under the boat.

Game ended after two events happened simultaneously ... Just as I achieved ten million points the ball fell between the flippers and drained. Again, not a problem in itself. The issue was that even though the messages displayed about achieving ten million and getting an additional ship, the game failed to give me the extra ball and it ended because I had lost my last ball.

I'll keep playing to see if the other issues I have had have been fixed.

UPDATE: I just started up the game, again, after closing it last time. Unexpectedly, I got the "Load autosaved game?" prompt. I selected "Yes" to load the saved game. I see my greater than ten million score from when the game previously closed ($10,152,910). But, this is where it got really weird ... the game started with no ball in the launching plunger! This was repeatable, until I chose not to load the old game.

Another bug fixed in update 1.4 ... Thanks
Quote:
... a repeatable bug with the mission behavior of the three lights to the left of the ramp entrance. When those three lights are the current mission objective, the act of lighting all three lights does not cause the program to record a successful mission.

However, this one has been found to be repeatable, and this time, the ball got shot into the right side gutter.

Ball falling into the launching plunger when in multi-ball mode:
When two balls were on the table, one of the balls fell into the launching plunger. The camera locked onto the plunger and the second ball was lost because (1) I couldn't see where it was, and (2) the flippers became inactive. The only game function that was active was the launching plunger. This is repeatable.
