Great implementation so far!

One suggestion:

At the beggining or the end of a player's turn, you are allowed as a free action to purchase a black dice for the cost of 3 camels. However, this messege pops up even when a player does not have 3 camels to pay for by the end of their move.

I think in some ways it makes sense at the start of a turn to receive the notification (even if a player does not have 3 camels to pay for), simply as a reminder of what you can do...but it really makes no sense to receice the notification at the end of their turn when they lack the required camels to pay for the black dice.

In rare circumstances it is possible for someone to obtain more camels at the end of their turn (via contracts). Would prefer to keep it consistent.

Any hints when this is out of beta? I would love to play it in arena mode :)

I don’t see how these are bugs. You can perform any number of bonus actions before/after your main action. You only get one main action per turn. Black/white dice are not assigned your colour so can be used to repeat an action you have previously played.

These rules can be found on page 14 and 16 in the English rule book. Let me know which rules you are referencing if you see otherwise.
on page 13 u can only buy 1black die so other bonus actioos u can make many times
