Thanks to rosve for the B2S implementation!

If you do not want the backglass to be started automatically, edit the table script and change the line:
LaunchBackGlass "backglass_name",true --> LaunchBackGlass "backglass_name",false

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Please note: Because all of the ads are be shown at the playfield area, a second screen (B2S) is not absolutely necessary
but all the better if a second monitor is available

Tips:
Catch the ball with the launcher device as often as possible.
Use the possibility to vary the launch strength.
Take your time when shooting improves the accuracy of the launcher

During that time when the game-over-holes have been transformed into kickers:
Those 500 points kickers are set so that it is possible, to collect all 1000 (500+500) points in a passage with skill
and to "catch" the ball right after with the launcher.
