Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
Normally, the game gives warning any time you're about to do anything that can't be undone, which includes any time players are about to draw cards. Kensington Runestone has an ability in which, when excavating, instead of drawing cards, they can archive knowledge. However, when using this ability, the game gives a warning on rotating the cards, then offers the player the choice between drawing and archiving. Drawing creates a second warning, whereas archiving shouldn't create an undoable situation in the first place, so the game shouldn't generate this first warning at all. I feel like this is misleading, because it suggests a player is about to perform an unintended action.
