10-Pin Bowling & Club

please give feedback for my bowling game that is upcoming this september.

It contains a full bowling alley alongside a bar and club.

please give constructive criticism on how I could improve specifically this building style.

I am a newbie to this building style and have never tried a US-Based build before.

It uses real roblox physics and was actually extremely simple to setup.

Looks cool. Do the pinsetters work and is there any detail of the pinsetters in the back room? I also once built a bowling alley that featured pinsetters that actually recycled pins from the bottom back to the top rather than doing it the “lazy” way of just hiding the pins behind a curtain as they respawn.

I’ve attempted to make a back room but the photos online are extremely confusing and I am no engineer myself.

Basically all the pins are connected to a part via rope. When player bowls it is registered by the ball entering a part. This then triggers that sequence of moving a Sweep Bar Down, Back, Front, Up. Within 3 seconds. Which Ironically, this is enough time to move the pins up. Move them down. Reset them back to original positions and then have the player bowl again.

I am now making ground on multiplayer so we can have 4-5 people playing at once and having digital screens which can display scores per bowl. Hopefully wont take me long :smile:

In-essence there is still that Sweep, Pin Table and Ball pit there just is no design to specific pins going in which place if you get me.

So what I read is essentially a hybrid of a traditional freefall pinsetter and a string pinsetter? I personally hate string pins with a passion IRL. It’s a shame most of my local bowling alleys have switched to them. Sorry if you don’t know much about bowling tech but the pinsetter example you pictured is a Brunswick GSX.
