Using Pinball Flipper Devices

The Pinball Flipper device can move, damage, and give score to players that interact with it. By default, it is activated by any player touching its front face, which rotates it counterclockwise and knocks those players away from it and slightly upward.

The Pinball Flipper can be set to activate when objects of the correct team touch it on either side (depending on the options selected). It can also be configured to trigger when taking any damage.

When activated, the device makes a noise and knocks players back, then the top of the Pinball Flipper retracts into the body until it is ready to activate again. If set to a non-glowing color, the Pinball Flipper will also glow briefly when activated.

For help on how to find the Pinball Flipper device, see Using Devices.

If you're using multiple copies of a device on an island, it can be useful to rename them. Choosing names that relate to a device's purpose makes it easier to remember what each one does, and easier to find a specific device when using the Event Browser.
