Update 2.7.0

Pinball Deluxe: Reloaded - madeofbits

New skin for Apparatus: Puzzle Box. Besides the skin and a new play mode for Daily Events the update is focused on fixing issues on various tables.

Table layout, rules and logic changes:

[Fastball] Changed the range of returns from the top-left capture to prevent the ball from bouncing right back in the hole
New 'All mods' mode implemented for Daily Events: use all the mods at once (only works with mods you have unlocked already)
[Rydes] The mode 1-ball Autosave will now work correctly on Rydes
[Tradewinds] Slight change to the windmill ramp collider: the entrance was such that the ball could sometimes get stuck inside the wall
Fixed an issue with the automatic multiball saves on Golf and Jukebox when a ball was draining at the same time as the auto-save was turning off
[Rydes] Fixed an issue with the 2mb where it could get stuck in a state where it is impossible to re-trigger
[Rydes] Fixed an issue where returning second the ball to the garage during 2mb would possibly allow for releasing it if the flipper was pressed at the exact right time

Other changes:

The plunger will automatically be released when the ball leaves the plunger area
[JurassicLinks] The eggs will open again
[TreasureHunter] The message 'jelly fish captured' will be smaller
[TreasureHunter] The lights for the hose will now all turn on correctly when using the mod that lowers the number of sub targets needed to start the missions
Fixed the localization of the default 'Me' score entry
It is now possible to change the name of a score on the local leaderboards. The new name will be used by default on the next score.
Fixed an rare issue where the player name would change on its own when reconnecting to the servers
[Tradewinds] The fish light next to one of the shore fishing target was stuck on. It is back to working now.
[Carnival] The Celtic Unlock token will be drawn in the correct order now: between the floor and the glass of the mirror house
A Rydes challenge was missing its text description, that is now fixed
[Brix] The Glo table background graphics will not be larger than the table anymore
Fixed an issue on tables where Extra Time is available (Golf for instance). Under some circumstances it would trigger after the timer has reached 0, which did not do anything. Now it will simply not trigger anymore in those conditions.
[Rydes] Multiball will now count toward the associated challenge.
When viewing a message it will not be possible to close the screen while the game is communicating with the server (which normally takes 0.1s but can sometimes cause errors in the background)
[Tradewinds] Powerballs will not be drawn on top of the other graphics anymore
The single score detail screen now can show longer player names
[Carnival] The mirror house bumper lights were stuck in the ‘on’ position.
Changed the logic so of the resume 3-2-1 countdown to always trigger if there are any balls in play, not at the plunger (it used to be bypassed whenever there was a ball at the plunger instead - which is slightly different)

[Rydes] Guardrail duration from 30/45/60/75 seconds to 30/60/90/120 seconds
[Rydes] If starting the 6-ball multiball is aborted because it cannot be started (if the 2-ball multiball is active for instance), progress will not be reset
[Rydes] Fixed an issue that would cause a ball drain during multiballs when Multiball Parking was triggered if you had both flipper pressed down
[Brix] The Lightning Strike mod received a hardware update: it will no longer target indestructible bricks
[JurassicLinks] The Meteor capture return ball speed has been changed to prevent the ball from going right between the flippers
[Apparatus] The infinite ball bug should finally be taken care of
[Apparatus] Triggering Target Multiball at the same time as Ultimate would start will now delay the multiball until after Ultimate is over
[Apparatus] Now has a better auto-plunger
[Apparatus] The bonus/special target scoring will not apply the powerball bonus

Less logging for connection issues
Added an option to share connection logs
If some text is not translated in your language, the English version will be shown instead of a blank
Some skins have altered text for in-game events to match the altered graphics (Truck Attack -> Santa's Helper for example). However, the altered text was not picked up if the default language was not English. This is now fixed.
Fixed some text for the Winter Carnival and Thrill Ride skins
[Baseball] Hit ramp capture used to snap to transform but it could result in overlapping balls if there were two next to each other. Instead we will move the ball via the position change.
Added capability to provide announcements from a server separate from Nakama to provide information on outages
Improved the visibility of the ball on the skin Thrill Park
Fixed a potential display issue for ladder games where the gameLength is zero

Rydes cabinet will now appear correctly in the Daily Events
Changed how the skins logic is handled
[Jukebox] Removed the hard to get ticket that would appear in the Award capture

Daily Event placement prizes will now include tables and scores
[PC/Mac] The Automatic Cloud Save option will be visible now

Increased skillshot value to 20k
Removed the duplicate achievement in the UI
Extra ball was applied twice
The target lights on the bottom targets would animate endlessly if triggered during the six-ball multiball
The garage was letting go of captured ball during 6mb, causing issues with counting the number of balls in play
Ryde progress during the autosave phase of the 6-ball multiball was discarded if it was triggered from a ball of a different color than the ryde.
During 6-ball multiball, it was possible to release a ball captured via the Multiball Parking. This is fixed.
After a Multiball Parking, the garage will switch a ball/color that is still in play, allowing for multiple Multiball Parking during a single multiball

'Free Ryde' lights will now turn on during the autosave phase of the multiballs
Upped the ball save limits to 100k and 18s
