Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
Tried repeated to play a route near edge of board, in this case Palermo to Smyrna.
-
• Please explain what you wanted to do, what you did and what happened
This is not the first time this has happened. Interface refuses repeatedly to take routes near edge of board, in this case Palermo to Smyrna. Spent more than 10 minutes and twenty attempts to place four white trains and two engines. The correct route would not light up or it would flicker. Routes no where near to where my cursor was would also flicker from time to time. If I attempted to release during a flicker of the correct route, the interface would take my trains cards, then spend thirty seconds or more doing nothing before it would return them to hand and make me try again. Ruined game for five people because this targeting of edge routes sucks. Will not play this game again til this is fixed.

Report history
I never encounter this problem but I zoom very often to be sure I click on the wanted route.
I use the zoom, I refresh, I closed the app.
Impossible to claim Athena to Smyrna.
Can you give the table# and move# when you try to build the Athena - Smyrna route?
Before selecting the route to build, do you select in your hand the color to use to build this route ?
The other player had similar experiences.
also side note: it lets you take a locomotive from the revealed trains AND a hidden card afterwards (which is not according to the rules)
We're on ios laptops using various browsers.
refresh does not fix.
Proposed solution - better separate route selection areas.
Add to this report
- Another table ID / move ID
- Did F5 solve the problem?
- Did the problem appear several times? Every time? Randomly?
