Managed to secure some extra sets so pm me or pop a message on here il get back to you cheers Paul
 
Find and listen to the podcast, where Keith specifically mentions this issue. No mod required, just ensure that the machine is level at the TOP of the playfield.
Specifically designed so the ball doesn't go straight to the flipper allowing the possibility of the ball being hit straight back into the building while it's moving.

Plus there's a ball save at the beginning of multiball anyway.

Wayne you seem to know a lot about this issue or non issue with the Sdtm in Godzilla tell me how did you go about setting up your premium / le to make sure it doesn’t go Sdtm as so many people Are encountering myself included any advice would be appreciated
 
A bit comical, everyone complaining about GZ STDMs on release, including videos by certain members demonstrating the issue.
Now said issue has disappeared like a GZ fart in the wind….lol

Edit: guess a cheap fix would be to turn the leg levellers up to max on right side…lol

The problem was exaggerated at release due to Stern not informing buyers the game needs to be levelled at the TOP of the playfield (approx where the damage meter text is printed) I know a lot of owners stateside who had issues with this no longer have the issue after Keith mentioned about the levelling non a couple podcasts recently.

This mods a great idea but it increases the risk of hitting a ramp shot while the building is moving. Keith mentions on the podcasts he doesn’t recommend doing that, guessing it will likely **** your mech up royally.

Just don’t flick that top left flipper when it releases then better than going Sdtm , to be fair I haven’t fitted mine yet so not sure how it performs just know I get fed up on three going Sdtm every multiball and by top is level so who knows

Is your building mech level too mate? Check the playfield and the mech itself and adjust with a washer or two if needed.

Maybe you should address that to the others who have a Prem on here who said there isn't a problem @Neil McRae or @kevlar or @Colywobbles or @MadNat for example?
Or maybe you could listen to the advice from the designer himself?

Glad you love it.
Have you any idea how many Prems I've set up and 'fixed'the issue on?
 
I'm pretty anal about leveling machines, just ask anyone who's heard me moan about unleveled machines at shows! I just leveled GZ as I always do with a spirit level at the top and bottom of the playfield and the balls fell nicely to the tip of the left flipper, didn't have to do any more than that. I'm not saying every ball survives the drop as it's a bit chaotic when all 3 hit at once but 9/10 times they all stay in play.
