How to turn on Live scoring? And generation number?

[G00dy]

I am new to the game. Since I came from Terraforming Mars, I am addicted to seeing live scoring to better understand overall situation in order to either finish the game faster or to build higher mountains. So, is there a chance to turn on live scoring? Or shall I make a topic about this on another forum to implement such feature? Same goes to the number of generations/moves that you make during the game. It seems that 8-9 is more or less average number if talk about 4p + spirit + A side (WSBG rules) but I couldnt find any number that could imply about it...

There is no option for live scoring in Harmonies. There should be previous threads about the topic on this forum (if I recall correctly, some of them had a link to feature request, too, and there the developer has replied that it's a decision made by the publisher and developer). So, you need to keep the scores yourself.

Turn number isn't shown, either (I think ). For side A, I'd say the average is close to 9. For side B, it should be one more.

As has been said in the other thread, this is a game where you need to be flexible in how you think about the score, so I'm not sure a live scoring would help. In any case, you would still have to count things by yourself.

The score I usually memorize is not the current score, but the score I expect me and my opponent to be at by the end of the game. Then based on how the game goes, I add and deduct points accordingly.

This is a recurring topic indeed.

For real-time games, I can understand that the publisher has not added live scoring: one may consider that being able to monitor the score in a few minutes is a skill somehow, which should then be rewarded as an edge on your opponent.

For turn-based games however, I do not get why we do not have the current score displayed: most players do the math by their own anyway, and it would only make the user experience smoother to automate it.

The score to be displayed just has to be the actual score of the moment: the one you would get if the game ended right now. Of course it can change a lot at each turn, and it can even be misleading if you or your opponent wait before playing animal cubes. But in my opinion it would still make the user experience better to have it computed automatically.
