Are you sure about this? My recollection of this adaptation is that you always get the option to undo at the end of your turn.

UNLESS you took the action with 3 workers and opted to draw a card before getting the ship. In these cases the interface asks if you want to draw the card before or after, and warns you that you can't undo if you opt to draw first. I'm wondering if you clicked the wrong action, selected to draw first, and that's why you couldn't undo it?

They are not talking about the action spaces--they are talking about buying ships for cash.

It's a known issue:

Thanks for the explanation. I'm embarassed to admit that despite having played the physical game quite a bit and the BGA adaptation a lot recently too, I had completely forgotten you could buy ships for money! (I've certainly never done it on BGA) :oops:

I once accidently bought 3 Knars. Annoying, but I'm so glad to be playing here and now I know to be more careful next time!

I'm also curious how you buy ships for silver. I know the rules allow this, but I have no idea how to do it mechanically via the interface. It might be nice if there was some indicator or button where you could purchase a ship for silver.

There is. Click the ships button to the left and the anytime action of purchasing ships is displayed above each ship.

AH! You need to go to the ships *tab.* Not sure that's easily found new players, but thanks for the help!~ I was lost without it.
