Placing irrigation in Takenoko

[Bearseagle]

I have played a couple of games of Takenoko but can't work out how to lay irrigation strips. I am playing on iPad and I select the strip on the improvement panel but as soon as I press end turn it disappears. I am tapping on the corner of the hex where I want it to go but it just doesn't work. Any ideas. Thanks

I also play Takenoko on my Ipad from time to time, and this is true, laying irrigation strips is hard ... but not impossible!
It is much easier if you zoom in, and you should tap exactly on the border of the tile. Usually, I have to make several attempts before succeeding, but most of the time it works.
Hope that helps!

Ok thanks. I will try that. The rest of the game is fine so hopefully I will get this to work

BGA recommends play in PC.

Designers works a lot for program each game in all browsers, and isn't easy to program it for tablets and mobiles too.

Tried again and works ok'ish now

I'm playing on an ipad, and everything works great except I can't work out how to get irrigation to stick. I can click on the blue pieces and put them on the tiles, but they never stay there and vanish whenever I click anything else. What is the technique to do this please?

You could try using a browser that allows you to have a mouse cursor on screen, I use Puffin but I'm sure other browsers may do the same thing. It has the added advantage of being able to see tool tips and other helpful information when the mouse cursor is over somewhere 'active' on the game board.

Maybe you solved your problem already, but if not, try clicking on the blue tile again. As in, click once to place it and a second time to confirm placement. (I don't have an ipad, but that is how it seems to work on my phone.)
