self.machine.accruals.*

class mpf.devices.logic_blocks.Accrual(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: mpf.devices.logic_blocks.LogicBlock

A type of LogicBlock which tracks many different events (steps) towards a goal. The steps are able to happen in any order.

Accessing accruals in code

The device collection which contains the accruals in your machine is available via self.machine.accruals. For example, to access one called “foo”, you would use self.machine.accruals.foo. You can also access accruals in dictionary form, e.g. self.machine.accruals['foo']. You can also get devices by tag or hardware number. See the DeviceCollection documentation for details.
