physics simulation world size ??

concretely what is it
Pure FP creates "physics simulation world" in size of Table (like 516 x 1068 x 500 mm, that 500 mm on Z axis is ~400 mm below and ~100mm above playfield).
If you try to use mini-playfield you will create objects outside normal playfield and order BAM to draw it inside.
If that objects are only visual addons, no ball/physics, that's fine. All works.
But if you use that Mini-Playfield as real thing (for example as path-of-faith in indiana jones, that physics sim world must be bigger than playfield.
Thats why ~5 years ago changed how it is calculated and added 1m on left, 1m on right and ~300mm above playfield.
That was default value up to last version, when you can change it (or restored defaul values like for pure FP).

There is one issue with that changed world size, it changes how table physics works. Some thing with changed world size don't work, some work little different.
Now you have control over one more aspect of FP.

Fastdraw,

Rafal started posting about world size on version 312. I think it was intended to fix a problem with miniplayfields but I don't think Rafal realized at the time that it changed physics quite a bit. At our request, he changed it so we can make adjustments to it as desired but keept the default as it was.

BAM 312:
