New confirm option is terrible. Sure it may help for those playing on mobile.... but what we really wanted was a freaking Undo button!! Like come on!

The 4-headed arrow that appears as you're trying to place a meeple covers up the little dot where the meeple should go. Go back to the old way without the 4-headed arrow. I don't remember whether it was a pointed finger or a cursor arrow, but whatever it was, it was much better than that big thing that covers up the important areas of the tile.

For me, the new controls are great. I play on mobile and it's so much better! Gone are the accidental page refreshes when moving the board. Gone is the situation, where I misclick and place pawn to the wrong spot without the option to fix the situation.

there is an option for that. jus turn off the option "show move cursor" and you will have only the cursor arrow

the confirm button is only on smartphone by default and disabled on pc. you can change that in the game preferences via 2 options to enable/disable the confirmation step an to set the duration of it

If you can't (or won't) change it back please give us an option to deselect these new 'improvements' as the game was far better before...
can you explain your complain?

The zoom levels. There aren't enough. You go from massive to tiny in four gradients of zoom instead of about 8

Previously it was 0.4
I have also reduce the zoom Delta from 0.2 to 0.1
