- UPDATED: This release updates the control system firmware to v6.6.

- 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.

- CHANGED: Steel Horse/Stage check their current switches on door close.

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

lock shot was not made for a while.
