Hello @corey.t.frye, That is a seen bug in the game, where not all subscribed worlds are shown. It will be fixed soon.

That's a great idea, I think I worked on this map before I even knew about the 'F' key functionality so I assumed everyone used the button to spawn the marbles. I'll work on an update the next chance I get to make the instructions more clear. Thanks for the observation! :lev:

TLDR my comment below: If you're having trouble to get the machine to start make sure to use the button on the spawner with the mouse to spawn the 1200 marbles. After that press P 1 single time to initiate the machine. If you press P more than once or use the F key to spawn marbles in you'll break the machine. Then follow the rest of the instructions as listed by the creator.

Note to the creator: Maybe specify to not use the keyboard command to spawn the marbles in, but rather to use the button on the machine itself to spawn the 1200 marbles before pressing the P key a single time while warning that not doing so will mess up the machine?

So I wasn't getting it to work at first because I was using the F key to spawn marbles... The reason why that messed it up is because there's 2 spawners... The first one that you see that drops marbles into the machine and the one down below the machine that sends a marble down the track to work as the note input. So if someone pressed the F key to spawn the marbles in rather than using the button on the spawner it will spawn marbles not just into the machine, but on the trigger track causing it to mess up the triggers leading to the machine freezing up. It took me a second to look at the machine and realize why I was spawning in 101 marbles even though the spawner only was set to 100 to realize what was going on. Once I saw the trigger to tie the spawner on the bottom track to the P key as well as noticing multiple marbles traveling down that track in my third or fourth attempt did I realize what was going on. Hope this helps anyone else who had issues like I did.

I love that video!!! :) :)

Ah, I'm glad it worked for you! The marble droppers are very reliant on some specific marble physics. The weight of the marbles pushes the others out from the bottom, so it may be possible that the physics acts different on different machines (depending on performance capabilities: FPS, game speed, physics settings, etc.). Sorry for any complications!

I got it working

Rotate the lowest flippers on each drop tube 5 degrees down (one rotation step).
Open the marble gate.
Spawn balls 100 at a time (slowly) until you have 1000 balls.
Press P on the keyboard to start playing.

Mine plays very well.

I also changed my desired fps to 30

1. yes
2. Marbles only drop at the cymbal
3. No

I spawned like 1500 marbles and it still doesn't work. I'll try again tomorrow.

Oh also, make sure you have enough marbles spawned! This machine works best if you spawn in at least 1200. Use the orange button on the spawning ramp to add in 100 at a time. If there is not enough marbles in the tubes above notes, the weight isnt enough to push them out the bottom.
Megumin  [author] 21 Jul, 2023 @ 4:43pm 
@StormBreaker I'm sorry that happened! For clarity's sake, I would like to know a few things if possible.

1. Are the tubes above each note full of marbles?
2. Are marbles dropping and just not making sounds?
3. Are any of the logic gates stuck open / turned on? (Sometimes if 'P' is pressed too many times, it will make them get stuck on)

Some possible things to try would be to delete and re-download the map, delete any stuck marbles, or clear all the marbles and spawn them in again.

Hope that helps!

Doesn't work for me. Only the cymbals work.
