<div class="um_umbrella bg-umbrella_2" style="position: relative;">
I did an experiment with Chrome dev tools, and when I manually add an ID to this div, then the tutorial works.

BGA explains the likely cause on this page: en.doc.boardgamearena.com/Tutorials_checklist
[Quote]
Each action of the replay should be replayable by triggering it manually (i.e. by reproducing the exact same sequence as done played originally during the game
(...) most likely reasons for the issue are:
- that you have triggered this.ajaxcall() / this.bgaPerformAction() programmatically in a notification handling function or a callback instead of only on a user interface action.
- or that there are several way to trigger the next action with different URL/arguments. You should make sure that the same game actions are triggered with the same "ajaxcall" / "bgaPerformAction" whatever the UX path used.

activateCards
activatePoints
activateUmbrellas
That if() looks like this:
if (this.root.isReadOnly()) return;
Since isReadOnly() returns true in a replay, it causes those 3 functions to quit prematurely.
Removing all 3 occurrences of that if() fixes the replay.
<div class="um_arrow bg-arrow_1"></div>
<div class="um_arrow bg-arrow_2"></div>
<div class="um_arrow bg-arrow_3"></div>
<div class="um_arrow bg-arrow_4"></div>
Note that those div were already encapsulated in other div with id, like I usually do. But now you have both id
I'm aware the outer divs have IDs but the BGA tutorial interface needs the inner divs with IDs too. If it's not much trouble could you please check why your last fix wasn't applied?
I can do a workaround but it won't be as nice as if the IDs were there.
Add to this report
- Another table ID / move ID
- Did F5 solve the problem?
- Did the problem appear several times? Every time? Randomly?
