[QUOTE="BStarfire, post: 57921, member: 1963"] I could be dense, but why does 'scripting' seem to always be used in a negative manner when referring to older tables? Of course, for newer (SS) tables you want emulation to ensure that the exact same ruleset, lights, etc. are in place. It's not like the scripting/emulation control the physics. For older tables, there's nothing to emulate. It's simply a matter of programming, or scripting, the logic of the table rules that were originally handled by relays and switches and what not, which aren't usually as complicated as more recent machines. Am I missing something? If the connection to Texas is via Mission Control then I'd certainly welcome Space Shuttle (wanna see Space Station as well). In any event, still rooting for Central Park.
