#115948: "Northern Flicker not rerolling"
What is this report about?
What happened ? Please select from below
The interface blocked me to do some game action authorized by the rules
Detailed description
• Which was the game action you wanted to do?
There was a single die in the birdfeeder, so I wanted to reroll.• What do you try to do to trigger this game action?
I had just played a Northern Flicker, which allows me to take all worms in the birdfeeder. The rules state that whenever you have the option to take food, and there is only a single type of food (as in this case where there is only a single die), you are allowed to reroll all 5 dice.• What happened when you try to do this (error message, game status bar message, ...)?
Nothing happened in the UI, no dice were rolled, but it showed the button to confirm the dice I'm taking. But because no dice changed, I'm not taking any.• What is your browser?
Google Chrome v121

boardgamearena.com/7/wingspan?table=498784359
It also occurred a few days ago in another game, but I don't have the link. It seems to happen when there are *two* identical food dice left in the feeder. Today it happened once with two fish, and another time with two mice. Neither time worked, despite a refresh, and even a restart of my browser. But I believe it worked when there was only one food in the feeder.
So not only did I not get the worms that should have been allocated to the flicker (both games), but once your opponent knows you want future worms, they can try to thwart the action (or at least the opponent from the other day did... good times).

27. Dec 2024 10:37 • Attempted to play Northern Flicker in Grassland, 2 dice in bird feeder both with rodents. Pressed "reroll", tried both bird feeder button and one at the top of the screen, dice did not reroll yet it still said "confirm dice selection" as though the reroll had occurred. Refreshes multiple times, exited game and re-entered, nothing helped.
