[QUOTE="superballs, post: 38269, member: 341"] Cradle seperation is extremely difficult and i think it has to do with the fact that the flippers are only going from still to full speed and that's it, not acceleration and possibly no effect of load from the ball. Also, it seems that the flippers return to rest position too quickly, lending them too much force on the upswing. I find post transfers to be a lot harder on real tables where the timing has to be perfect or the flip will be too weak to properly bounce the ball off the post hard enough to actually transfer it. It will just land back on the flipper and roll back to above the pivot. In TPA, the flippers return at full force no matter where they start from so you can just let them barley drop and they will fling the ball against the post and over. For cradle seperation, usually one ball will be sent flying and the other off in a random direction. What I'll usually do is i will nudge the inside ball off the flipper and into the inlane, then little flip and it either goes straight up allowing for a post transfer and a cradle or it post transfers and i cradle...or chaos again.
