[QUOTE="vikingerik, post: 229115, member: 3745"] Note that CFTBL probably suffers from *both* of those bugs. You need to roll past 10B with a small score as always, then you also need to end the game (drain ball 3) for any rollovers to count in the tournament. Funhouse and BoP aren't affected because they're just impossible to rollover in 20 minutes. The Funhouse ROM supports up to 999M internally and BoP 9,999M, neither of which you'd exceed that fast. Same goes for Taxi and 99M. Both bugs should be fixable. TPA's engine can indeed hook into the ROM. We know it can read the score, because the tournament does so at the 20 minute deadline. The latter bug should be easy to fix, it's just an oversight that ending a tournament game that way neglects to apply detected rollovers. Fixing the bug of detecting big CFTBL-size rollovers is somewhat trickier, but could be done with smart enough logic reading the ROM score frequently. [/QUOTE]
