Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
When a player kicks dirt onto the track and a -1 token is placed on the tile, BGA displays the token on/near the shortcut. This has led to some players thinking that the shortcut itself is being reduced, rather than the regular path through the corner. Please move the tokens to be near the outside edge of the corner so that players can more intuitively see that the corner is reduced, not the shortcut.

Have a nice day
We are working on a fix to unlock the table.
I understand bug fixes take priority over QoL suggestions, but moving the tokens seems like an easier fix to reduce the problem in the meanwhile until an update that creates an exception to allow blocked players to move into the shortcut.
