Let's all breath a collective sigh of relief.... things have been rough the last week; but I have burnt many hours to be able to report:

Star Trek: The Mirror Universe is 98% ready for TPF.
Displays done and installed.
Proximity Sensor issues resolved with some rework and a relay per board. Lanes now score!
Shooter Installed.

I actually play tested about 6-8 games tonight.

The 2%?

PopBumper Spoons are causing issues:

So bad that if the left upper bumper skirt wedges out of the spoon... and I hit a slingshot; the machine tilts.
I don't have replacement spoons here.

Display scoring is corrupted by the Nixie design / Bally code issue. Oliver (A Bally code expert) is looking into the software for me. I hope by the end of the weekend to have solution. Backup is still standard score displays.

Tomorrow I have to solder two more LEDs... and maybe some LED strips; and I'm done until TPF setup.

No pictures. Right now I need to break for STNG repair for TPF... and want to do some mods to my Stern ST LE for TPF. Worst case; maybe someone from TPF will post their feedback / pictures. And if there is time; I'll try to capture some game play videos from TPF.
