Thank you for implementing my idea. I think it’s perfect now: it doesn’t slow down those who don’t care, and it doesn’t prevent those who want to make specific moves from doing so

I was playing Table #792196942
I had 2 locos 3 blue 1 orange.
I wanted to play a 3 grey tunnel with 2 blue and 1 loco (I wanted to keep a blue for next-last turn)
I didn't find how to do it.
Blue didn't allow me to play locos.
"Custom" only showed me to play locos. Did I have to select "locos", and after that it would have ask me to add blue or orange ?

I think custom showing only locos is a bug, I posted an update in the bug section with a screenshot of a similar situation

It's worth noting that the choice of locomotive/color/custom only appears if you click the tunnel first; if you click, say, a blue card and then the tunnel (like I do out of habit) it defaults to using max blues like it used to.

I've also noticed the bug with custom; I've commented my theory on a couple bug reports recently but it seems to only happen with gray routes, likely because the interface doesn't yet know what color you intend to use.

Thx

Je confirme Thoun, quand on veut prendre un tunnel gris on ne peut plus faire ce qu'on veut.

Avec 7 noirs et 2 locos en mains pour prendre le tunnel de 6 gris, je ne peux plus rien faire d'autre que jouer 6 noirs. Je voulais garder 2 noirs pour le tour suivant, impossible de jouer 5 noirs + 1 loco.
Dommage, il me semble qu'au début de tes améliorations c'était possible.

When we choose "Custom", if we have to add additional train cards for the tunnel cost, the additional payment is automatic or can we choose how to pay ?
