Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
Currently the interface asks you to place assistants, and then once you confirm, it's impossible to take that decision back. But it is very easy to place assistants and, when you need to move your President, realize you made a mistake (e.g. failed to make a continuous path to your destination, or don't have money to go through Presidents/canal). It should be possible to go back to the assistant placement step--the current interface is too unforgiving for new players, and even can trip up experienced players who have 2nd thoughts or commit an oversight.
