Report history
I just messed up my game by actually hitting "Character Action" rather than "Harvest". It wouldn't let me undo, so that means I've lost the game because I have no way of collecting resources in this round.
This is a punishingly difficult game, and it's very frustrating to have the interface add greatly to the difficulty.
Example...second ship is lost, workers did not go to city etc...
Thank you for considering fixing the problem
I understand that coding on BGA is largely a volunteer effort. Would it be possible for me to volunteer to try and reimplement Madeira in order to address this issue? It would be my first time working on this type of project, but I've been a software developer for 25 years and Madeira is one of my all-time favorite games.
I have programmed my first game, Cacao, and it is in alpha.
But players ask me to implement undo (boardgamearena.com/bug?id=22152) : maybe that in Cacao, undo is less critical than in this game.
But for a junior programmer in BGA (I program since 30 years, but this experience does not help in BGA workbench), the undo is a hard job.
In my case, this implies changements in states, and probably a game experience less fluid.
If you don't draw new cards or reveil hidden objects, undo should be available each time.
Wish WYG would came through in the end too with their KS
