Bon Jovi Update History

Bon Jovi Code Update History

Version: 2026.10.13
-------------------
- ADDED: Timing settings for the "fling" release on the heart mech so it
         can be more specifically tuned.
- ADDED: Jackpot displays in Living on a Prayer.
- UPDATED: This release updates the control system firmware to v6.6.
- UPDATED: New text on the startup hardware alerts to try to be more clear
- UPDATED: Some default coil settings changed to new values.
- UPDATED: Continuing work on the lock logic to try to make it more fault
           tolerant & smarter (Prayer/Wanted).
- UPDATED: The sound levels are set earlier, so there's no risk of super
           gong if you open the door at the right point when the game boots.
- UPDATED: Runaway atmosphere show updated to tone down some of the color
           wash brightness so lit shots stay clearer.

- CHANGED: Steel Horse/Stage check their current switches on door close.
- CHANGED: Drop targets re-apply specific requests after ball search ends.
- CHANGED: Living on a Prayer doesn't hold on to the heart ball until the
           jackpot requirement is met; just goes up and tries to deposit
           the ball on the ramp.
- FIXED: Bad Medicine wasn't updating the ticket info correctly.
- FIXED: The left drop target down coil profile was incorrect.
- FIXED: A few specific crash bugs that turned up.
- FIXED: Heart test in service menu would get stuck in "initializing" if
         entered with the door open.
- FIXED: Ball search was putting the right drop target up instead of down
- FIXED: Living on a Prayer intro section could end unexpectedly if the 
         lock shot was not made for a while.
- FIXED: Draining the loose last ball in Living on a Prayer while the song
         total was displaying would start the next song and get stuck.

         hooked up in the config.
