- Fixed vertical targets that register a hit when struck by the ball but remain in place — they don't drop, retract, or move. The simplest form of [[gameplay-feature:targets]] on the playfield, standup targets are typically flat plastic or metal plates mounted on leaf switches, arranged individually or in groups to spell words, complete sequences, or guard high-value areas. They require less mechanism than [[gameplay-feature:drop-targets]] and can be placed almost anywhere on the playfield, making them the workhorse target of pinball design.
