Long Beach

Basic in-line game with a score double feature which advances a lit arrow every time a ball drops through the return hole. The advancing is enabled for balls 2-X in play. X is configurable via jumpers on some games and is in the range 3-5. Stingy operators would have the game set so only balls 2-3 could advance the arrow.

The schematic implies that on some versions of the game you needed to be playing all three cards for balls 4-5 to advance the arrows, and there was no operator adjustment.

You need a returned ball advancing arrows 15 times for the double feature to light, but the advance does not reset after each game - even if you power off - so it's similar to the spell name feature on some United games.

When you get the doubling enabled, the next win on each of the three cards will score double. Once you double score on a card, doubling for that card is turned off, but the others remain on until they score. The feature only resets after you have scored on all three cards - or you turn off the game.
