Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
Currently, when a crop card is watered or fed, a token is placed on the card. But this token is exactly the same as the icon on the card, in exactly the same orientation, except slightly bigger and slightly shadowed. At a real table, this would probably be easier to see, but in an online implementation (with a straight top-down view), it can be hard to spot without looking carefully. (I have a big monitor - I can't imagine what it's like on a phone screen.)
The simplest solution I can think of would be to make the tokens solid colors (removing the icon).
Alternatively, maybe adding an additional mark on top of the token (like a big checkmark) would work.

Report history
I think it's important that the markers be recognisable as resource tokens, because the supply of tokens is limited and gets depleted throughout the game as they get used as markers. So I wouldn't want to change or obscure the appearance of the token. Something I had considered is changing the white background. We're considering options.
