#108370: "Placed a station by accident"
What is this report about?

Suggestion: in my opinion, the following would greatly improve the game implementation
Detailed description
-
• Please explain your suggestion precisely and concisely so that it's as easy as possible to understand what you mean.
Second time I placed a station by accident. My mouse cursor gets stuck in an animation on the board and without confirmation it places a station. Usually I need to hit F5 to even be able to place a station with confirmation the right way.
On the sides of the board, this animation problem is most problematic (like Rostov, Angora), but also with short routes near Brussels and the single at Vienna.
A station placement should ALWAYS have a confirmation. • What is your browser?

I would suggest to have only one valid way of placing a station (by clicking on the city is fine) and ALWAY have a confirmation.

There should always be a confirmation for station. Do you have a move number?

Move 91
I was dragging two blue to Brussels-Frankfurt and i couldn't move it correctly and all of a sudden it gave me a station on Brussels.
I've had a few opponents put random stations as well.

I don’t know, maybe the "Confirm route claim" option (or another option) must be enabled to have a confirmation required to place a station!

Happened again: game 455270776
I tried to play 2 green Kharkov Smolensk, my cursor gets stuck, I try and try to move my cards to the correct spot and a station appears. No confirmation. Maddening.

Table 452521766 28/12/23 10:16
I was not intending to build a station but, while moving mouse, a station was built and my turn was over. Not a good result loosing wild card and 3 points and 1 move.

I've now at least twice if not more ended up with an accidental station when I thought I was claiming a route. Happened in table 457871633 when trying to claim Wien to Budapest and instead ended up with a station in Budapest which is absolutely useless to me.

Did you activated Confirmations in the user preferences ? (top right menu)

There was no confirmation offered for placing a station when it was placed my turn was just over... about turn 98
24. Feb 2024 5:40 • cb68 • Developers would like more information about this suggestion:
There is no preference option available at my table for confirmation of placing a station
24. Feb 2024 6:36 • menettm • Developers would like more information about this suggestion:
Like said previously, the "Confirm route claim" preference must be set with "Enabled" (only) choice to have a confirmation required to place a station or a route. ;-)

It should be set by default to always ask for confirmation by developers; we have a number of issues especially in Europe map; in smartphones it makes games unplayable: close routes are continuously being confused
I wanted to open a new thread, but it is a similar issue. There could be a choice of disabling this feature, but if it is hard to have thois, then game should be ALWAYS asking for confirmation
I had the choice enabled and still it put 1 pink and 2 locos just by trying to roll the map in a smartphone; unfotunately I touched at a 3 pink route.
Please do not ask for more information, just install a permanent feature of ALWAYS asking for confirmation

Obiously I am referring in previous post to both claiming routes AND putting stations
25. Aug 2024 16:30 • Photios • Developers would like more information about this suggestion:
second on previous reports; I have gained one game where I wondered why opponent was putting random stations... until it happenned to me: should ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ask for confirmation. How is it possible to put a station without asking for confirmation, just by taking the single card out of many. This not a bug: this is an ERROR in the program.
As you can see this is the 3rd time I'm making this claim

Yes but you don’t reply clearly : Do you set to "Enable" the "Confirm route claim" PREFERENCES in the Ticket to Ride options available now at bottom of the TTR board ?

YES!!! please implement an extra confirmation. A station gets placed by mistake soooo many times!
9. Nov 2024 22:13 • spritemaster • Developers would like more information about this suggestion:
This happens regularly in games I play, and always to players with touch screen devices. Confirm Route Claim is enabled (by default, it seems) as "only for touch-enabled devices". But this setting doesn't appear to work and/or device detection is buggy.
One player I know is recognised by BGG as playing on tablet, but still doesn't get confirmations with this setting. Another player I know has a Chromebook with touchscreen, I checked and their preferences are set to "touch enabled devices only". But BGG shows them as using a standard browser. They don't get confirmations either.
Unfortunately I can't ask these people to change settings to "enabled", as they're not tech-savvy. The last time I asked one of them, the game timer ran out and they got a penalty while trying to find it. However, the setting "only for touch-enabled devices" should be working, but isn't.
