Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
In the game, I found that I could not take any of my 5 action cards, I had $0, and a venom token on Build in slot 4. The sponsor card was slot 1, and I lacked X tokens so could not sponsor for 2 to get money. No option was apparent that I could do to remedy, because every single action caused me to have to restart my turn with insufficient money to pay venom. As it turns out there was one non-apparent way to accomplish it, which was to use the "Move card to slot 1 for an X token" option, selecting the Build card.

The error messaging should be cleaned up:
(selecting Cards action) "You can't take an irreversible action if there is a mandatory undoable action pending (eg unpayable Venom fee)"
or perhaps a helper text could be provided indicating that a venom token can be cleared in the following ways:
Break
Using the action card
Taking the "Moving the action card to slot 1 for an X token" action on the card
Also begs the question, if I had this exact scenario, but with TWO active venom cards, would it present any additional challenges with the UI. If you have a go at this, you may want to test case it with two venom tokens.
Your question about the side instance of having two venom tokens instead doesn't actually make any difference, if you read the rules. You only have to pay the venom fee if you *don't* discard a venom token that turn, no matter how many you have left.
