Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if any.
You must play this other game first.
-
• Please explains what you wanted to do, what you do and what happened
The problem occurs sometimes, when I place the last piece of the game correctly. Instead of accepting the solution, it blocks the game and forces me to play another game first. If there are more running arena games waiting for me, I have to finish all of them before the solution is accepted. Example: table 599240515, where I used over 21 minutes, even though the maximum is 5 minutes. Most of the time the correct solution is not accepted in such a situation and you get the "no solution within time limit" penalty.

Report history
The bug was also filed by another player under Reflection, but we are quite certain, that it is an issue with BGA and not the game. Here is the Refelction bug for reference: boardgamearena.com/bug?id=104742 It also contains screenshots.
It is currently affecting me a couple of times per week and I regularly see other players report the same bug in my arena matches..
You've had this problem in the Reflection game, but it's the bga framework that's blocking your action.
Other people have had the same message in other games (for which it's less of a problem because the resolution time is not a victory criterion).

Here’s the screenshot for the error. It also happened to me as soon as I finished the puzzle. Since I refreshed the page so the the pieces are not on the board, but you can see that the puzzle has started even if the ‘you should play this table first’ sign is on. Too bad that I don’t remember the table number.
Add something to this report
- Another table ID / move ID
- Did F5 solve the problem?
- Did the problem appears several time? Everytime? Randomly?
