Ark Nova: Change "Move" on top left into "Turn Number"

Post by rezett »

Code: Select all

Table #xxxx
Move #xxx
Progression xxx
As topic, It would be better if we change can "Move" into "Turn Number", As it more accurate on game logic and provide more useful information.

I think in replay mode, It would be better if we change to.

English is not my native language, therefor I am not sure, whether "move" or "turn" is the better term. But please keep in mind: The term "Move" is not part of Arc Nova, it is a general term of the BGA website. So, if you change it, it will affect all games. And the word "move" is also used in some other terms, e.g. "replay last moves", "undo moves", etc. The term "Move" seems to be used since 2012-01-13 (or even earlier).

Move is not turn number at all. It's really just the number of "moves" made during the game, that is only useful for replay purpose.

Sorry for unclear suggestion. I don't wanna change the word. But the way it count.

In ark nova, when you do 1 action card. It count as 2 move or more, depend on how that action can trigger.

If we use animals card at 5 power, It count at least 3 move and will be more if the animals have any effect. It would be best if in this scenario BGA count move number as only 1.

Right now, it will show number like "Move: 455" during the game. And i dont know how to use "Move 455" as useful information. If any can know how to use this information please told me.

The move number is not usefull for statistics (it does not say anything about how many turns a player had during the game).

The move number is usefull, if you watch the replay of the game. You can jump directly to any move number. And you can refer to that specific situation, e.g. when discussion rules or reporting bugs. It refers to a snapshot of the game situation at a special point of time.
