Not so much (usually) on the real things.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Predictability: Sometimes FarSight changes the physics, but in between updates, once you find a shot or learn a kickout, it never changes. Real tables are not so predictable; the local TZ here has a slot machine kickout that varies minute by minute!</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Spin: I am not sure if TPA's physics engine emulates ball spin, and if it doesn't, I'm not sure if it's because the engine simply doesn't do that or if it's a side effect of the predictability (i.e., the kickouts are always in perfect alignment so the ball never gets any spin).</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Replays/specials are extra balls: Most real machines are not set this way.</li> </ul></blockquote>
