acknowledged: Developers agree that it is a good idea and intend to work on it
What is this report about?
What happened ? Please select from below
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.
It would be helpful to have the option to restart your turn / undo the action card selection, or whether you want to start with the action or placing your cabelleros. Currently any misclick cannot be walked back.• What is your browser?
Mozilla v5

+1. This unfortunately comes up repeatedly for me, at the cost of many points. Use cases that would be useful:
1) clicking "Use Action" and then going back to "Place Caballeros" first
2) clicking "Use Caballeros" and then going back to "Use Action" first
3) confirming your selection for Actions, or Castillo
Perhaps generalizing to confirming the entire turn, similar to the Yucata implementation.
A recent design trend in BGA games is to have a Confirm button that has a countdown and auto-confirms for you, but you still have time to "Cancel" and redo your action (or entire turn)

I will agree with this. When I chose the action cardm and then had to chose caballeros or the action, there was no way back, even though I have not seen any cards or anything.
I believe it would be great If I could reset my current turn and choose another card.
Great implementation. thanks

very frustrating if you miss-click and essentially have to toss the game.

Perhaps some developer likes to help. It should not be too hard to add a countdown timer with auto-submit for the action button (pure javascript)

Low priority for me

Countdown timers are ridiculous; let the players decide for themselves how to spend their time how they want and click Confirm whenever.

Also, in addition to adding undo functionality, during those actions that are simultaneous, such as anything involving the secret disc, allow players to change their minds while other players are still deciding. Such phases are as long as the slowest player, so the game will not go on any longer even if multiple people change their minds while the slowest player is still deciding.

I won't add any new features anymore. Perhaps someone else will.

It's a great game and a very good implementation, but it's essentially unplayable without a way to back up a mistake.

Very poor of BGA to ignore this for so long while foisting changes on the playerbase that no one asked for.

Hi @Volker78, I can develop this feature if you agree to review my code and merge my commit if it is OK for you.

@arbocenc This seems like a hard feature for me, perhaps you could first help fixing this bug?
