- Two [[gameplay-feature:drop-targets]] arranged in a line rather than a traditional [[gameplay-feature:bank-drop-targets]] configuration. The "in-line" designation distinguishes targets placed in a sequential path — typically along a lane or narrow channel — from the side-by-side arrangement of a standard bank. IPDB catalogs a single machine with this configuration: *[[title:joust]]* (1983) by [[manufacturer:williams]]. The paired in-line targets created a two-stage gate that the player had to clear sequentially as the ball traveled through the lane.
