Artwork done by GNance
Original art by Popotte
others to thank: JPSalas, Pinuck, hauntfreaks, Borgdog, Arngrim
in addition to the "standard" keys (typically "1" to start game and "5" for coin), I've added "3" as another coin input and "4" for coin and auto-start game (like I recall the dime slots generally were) to simulate 3 coin slots
when game is not in progress, holding down left flipper for about 3-5 seconds will bring up the options menu. left flipper selects item, right flipper changes option.
I've also included shadows for the ball and flippers. If you want to turn them off look for these lines at the beginning of the script:
Const ShadowFlippersOn = true
Const ShadowBallOn = true
change to false if you want either of the shadows not showing on your tables

Hi loserman76,
First off, I absolutely love all of the work you've done. I have been enjoying every table!
I have a question about the Magnotron tables you've done. The VP9 version is the only one that the ball collision is working. I've tried both VPX and FP tables and when I go to hit the 2nd ball, it's like hitting a rock and the 2nd ball barley moves (in the bonus curve lane in the middle of the table). I've also tried the Duolotron tables and same thing, only the VP9 table worked.
Do you have any suggestions on why once the 2nd ball is hit, it doesn't go side to side for the bonus? Am I forgetting a file, script, or some setting?
Thanks for all your time. I greatly apricate it.
Great Work Loserman, I have the same problem with the fantastic table, as BretHart87, the captive ball doesnt move on a direct powerful hit, maybe a smaller ball would work, but im shitty at changing that stuff in editor
Thanks

I have it working now. I hid all of the table layers except for layer 1. I clicked on the metal u shape piece on the top of the horseshoe and ungrouped it from the metal medium group. I reshaped the right side. I noticed the left wire was smaller than the right side so I resized it to around the same size as the right wire. The ball goes back and forth now and the bonus works. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. I have it working like it should now. Also did the same thing to the Duotron table.
Yes. Just go to table editor, enlarge the view where the horseshoe loop is, then carefully enlarge the horseshoe loop itself keeping the aspect ratio. It doesn't take much. Cheers! This E.M. is surely a blast!

First time editing objects here, wasn't sure about enlarging the horseshoe, so I just moved it north a tiny bit. The ball moves now! 
Fun table! It takes me back to skipping class in high school, sneaking off to the bowling ally. The "Real" Magnotron machine there had a exploit; if you tilted on your 2nd ball you would get a free game!
Awesome job! I love this table very much. Thank you!
