It appears you have the multiball settings on the more difficult one whereas only one hole lights up per target bank completion as opposed to two lighting up then the leftover single hole.
As the game difficulty progresses after achieving several rounds of multiball it will eventually go to the one hole at a time as seen in this video.

[@pinballdoctor]

I think you are mistaken on how the multiball locks work on this title. There are several settings on how locks are handled but there is no progression that I am aware of making it more difficult as the game goes along / multiple multi-balls in nthe same game are acheived. I wanted the game set up hard like this so it would be more difficult to roll the score over. If you have a video od how you say the game handles multiple multi-balls, please link it.

@@pinballdoctor I don’t have any videos of it I was speaking from memory of many years playing that table at various locations since the 80’s.
The first round of multiball always lit 2 of the holes randomly after first round of completing targets then the 3rd hole last after completing targets again.
Multiball sessions afterward are one hole lit per target bank completion.
Not sure if it’s in dip switch settings or back glass menu from coin door controls or that particular machine is an anomaly.

@@pinballdoctor the default setting is definitely lighting 2 random locks. Maybe a board related issue?

[@pinballdoctor]

@@pinballtime No issue with the boards. It is a feature on how you can set the difficulty in the game settings.
