Real Pinball Plunger on Control Panel - How To
ahofle:
To me one of the biggest issues with doing a plunger right is that it has to be an analog control, and pinball emulators (that I've used at least) don't have this. Visual Pinball uses a single key down and times how long you hold it to determine shot power. Pulling it back a half an inch and holding it for 2 seconds would yield a harder launch that pulling it all the way back for 1/2 second (which is of course inaccurate). It would be nice if you could map to a pot somehow and actually record how far you bring the plunger back to determine the launch power.
