Claw Machine Bugs

[emilyrose9]

I managed to stumble upon a bug that effects an claw machines. The bug causes all of the contents inside the crane machine to sprawl onto the floor.
It works most of the time on the 2 crane machines in Larry's arcade.

Step one of the bug works on any of the arcade machines. First you left click to play a machine and press tab at the same time, bringing up the watch menu. Then you press esc and hit tab 2 more times. This should allow you to freely move away from the machine, while you're still technically playing the game as your card is still in the slot.

Step two is simply playing one of the claw machines. In doing so, the game will freeze momentarily and the prizes from the machine will 'fall out' of it and spread onto the floor of the arcade.

Here's a link to a video of me performing the bug:

I'm going to try this in Survival on a new save.

Yep should work. Using this bug and selling prizes will make survival easyyy

I can confirm this works I just tried it, as hilarious as it is it should probably be fixed lol

Although i can only get it to work on the ticket ball one

It actually looks like it works for other games that spawn things as well, I did it with the cuckoo coins game and a bunch of the coins and little prizes spawn in the middle of the room

I tried this and thought, well I got a lot more than usual but not a whole machine's worth. And then I turned around. The balls were rolling all over the arcade! Way too funny! Now it's time to start a new Survival game. Thanks for the great tip and a good laugh!

Yeah I noticed it on other machines too. My theory is that it works on machines that automatically refill the prizes inside
