Link to game final situation

Post by disu »

Hi,
In my Alpha game (Trusis), when a game ends, in the table webpage does not compare the button with link to game final situation. In other games it compares.

In my game there is some secret roles assigned to players. It is important, when a time-based game ends and a notification arrives to players, that I reveal the roles to the players, shown in final game page.

Just a compare with 7 Wonders table page (sorry, it is in italian):

How can I enable that button? Maybe it is not visible because game is in Alpha..

Thank you ufm. But my screenshot refers to a turn-based game just finished before writing this post.

I noticed that too on some games. I think it may be when playing in training mode (alpha games are played in training mode).
I took a note to check the code on this, but in any case this is a framework behaviour, nothing to do on the game side for this.

If it is one secret role per player, then couldn't you include it in the stats for the game? No one can see the stats until the game has finished and they would be available long after the 24hours given to replay the final turn.

So to clarify this feature, the [See final game situation] and [Replay the last turn] buttons are displayed:
- only for turn based games
- only for players who have played the game
- only for as long has the table has not been archived, since archival garbage collects the database for this table to free space for new games (archival is triggered automatically after one day for turn-based games, or manually when someone clicks [View game replay])

...and you should add:
- when the game is not in training mode

Have you checked this behaviour on code?

What I wrote above is from checking the code. Training mode is the same as normal mode.

Unfortunately this is not the case for my game. I've just finished a Time-based game, so i suppose it is not archived. If I go to https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=231608439, I cannot see [See final game situation] button.

I see these 5 buttons:
- How to play?
- Propose a rematch
- Play this game now
- View game replay
- Discuss

Are you sure that that button is not dependent from same game options or alpha-state?
