Tron Push/Pull Spinner Question
(1/2) > >>
NoBonus:
I do not know of any "Discs of Tron" games in my area, otherwise I would answer this question myself.  In the game "Discs of Tron", does the push/pull spinner have two or three distinct positions (like up, middle, down) or does it have a complete range of motion (like it has it's own complete axis to move freely up and down)?

Additionally, does anyone have any info on building their own push/pull spinner? (I would buy one, but $99 is WAY too much for it's limited application in my desktop console, plus I am determined to build one)


Thanks,

To my knowledge all it did was activate a switch at the upper and lower ends of it's travel.   See 1UP's DOT spinner page found here if you want to build your own.

That design seems like it would warp your spinner light cutter deal and prevent the spinner from spinning while in the up or down position.
Lilwolf:
btw... expect 99+ for a real one on ebay...

and take note to this.

Its NOT really worth it for ANYONE... unless..

1) You like spinner games (runs them all).  
2) Your not impressed with a 5minute spin time... it has good spin... but not the smoothest.
3) You LOVE DOT!
4) And your good enought to get to level 7 or more


Its only about 30-40 bucks more then a non-dot spinner.... So 30 bucks for another game?

I spent 80 on a 720 controller and don't feel bad about it...  But that was my favorite game..  I would like a DOT spinner one day.. but I don't know if I am good enough to warrant it.

My tron hack joystick has a hat button that I have mapped to up/down if I were ever to get to level 7 :)  I love DOT but boy is it hard.
