New question on taking a double route

Post by thoun »

I just released a little change on double route taking : when you click on a double road, if you can claim both, it now ask you which color you want to claim.
It's activated by default, and you can disable it if you are precise enough to click on the colored route you want to take without mistake (user preference in the top right menu).
I supposed the players would click on the color they wish to take, but seeing feedback, at least some of the players click on any part of the double route and expect to be asked for the color.

About confirmation (user preference in the top right menu)
It doesn't replace Confirm, if you activate it, it will ask the color you want, than ask you to confirm. If you activated the confirmation just for this case, you can now disable confirmation.

About selecting color first or dragging
If you first click on a color then a doubble route, or drag a color to the double route, you won't be asked about the color because game already know which color interests you.

So to sum up, the new question will show if you click a double colored route (no need to ask for double gray routes), if you can claim both, if the game doesn't know the color you want (no color preselection and no dragging), and of course if you didn't disable the question in the user preferences :)

Thanks Thoun, this is a good refinement to the interface. And thanks for all the hard work that went into the implementation of this game!
