Penny Falls

User Interface

The UI is broken up into three areas

Players

The number of players reflects the number selected by the Players PopUp Control. You can enter the player names. This must be done before you click the ‘play’ button to start a game session.

You use the ‘Play’ button beside each player to select the active player.

Falls

There are three Falls into which pennies can be dropped: 1, 2 or 3. You need to select a Player in order for these buttons to enable.

Release Penny

There are three ways you can release a Penny into the machine, once a Fall as been selected.

  • Clicking the button on the Admin Screen
  • Pressing the Space bar when the button on the Admin Screen is enabled
  • Pressing a button on a Buzzer when the button on the Admin Screen is enabled. Note: Any button, on any controller, can be used, so be careful of non-current players cheating :)

There is no logic in place to prevent a player using more pennies than they initially get.

Cameras

You can change the angle of the camera to better see what is happening on the machine. There are 6 options.

  • Full View : Shows the whole machine.
  • Tiers: Shows all three tiers
  • Top Tier: Focuses on the top tier
  • Middle Tier : Focuses on the middle tier
  • Bottom Tier: Focuses on the bottom tier
  • Falls: Focuses on the three Falls.
