- Flipcommons AI Descriptions (GameplayFeature)A type of [[gameplay-feature:rollovers]] with a star-shaped switch embedded flush with the playfield surface, scored when the ball rolls over it. The switch consists of a small metal star whose points flex downward under the ball's weight to close a contact. Star rollovers are typically arranged in lanes — particularly inlanes and outlanes — where they register the ball's passage and advance lane-change sequences or light bonus multipliers. They first appeared in the late 1960s and became ubiquitous on [[technology-generation:electromechanical]] and [[technology-generation:solid-state]] machines, providing a low-profile scoring mechanism that does not obstruct the ball's path.
