[QUOTE="invitro, post: 219911, member: 446"] From memory... it lights at the left lock lane, which is important to hit, but it times out after about 20 seconds. But jackpot is so unimportant in BRose that it doesn't really matter, right? There are tons of times in real pinball when you really don't want to hit a shot. You don't want to start a mode or multiball too early, or collect a jackpot before maxing it, or face a tough kickout, etc. Tons and tons. Maybe not things that will explicitly give you a penalty, but there are probably those too. Quick example from tourney, in Diner, at the start of a game, I really don't want to hit the right lane for the random award until I have a ball locked. Because if I wait, it'll still be lit, and the random award will be multiball, and after the ball loops around to the top left, the right lane will be lit for that mode where the ramps are worth 500k (sorry, can't think of proper names right now). But if the right lane is collected prior, it will unlight, and then an extra shot will be needed to light the 500k-ramp mode. Anyway, those kinds of things are all over the place. [/QUOTE]
