1) Could the mission infoblock be placed in a popup or be closed/minimized after the first card is played or be placed more to the side of the board
2) Placing the infomation chip can be done automatic. Mayby you need to click on the chip to confirm your info card but if that is the reason I would prefer a more obvious confirmation like an ok button or something

For communications, why isn't the positioning of the helmet automatic?

There also seemed to be some times when we weren't allowed to do communications. None of us could figure out why.

Some missions have limitations on when you can perform communications (eg no communication before trick #3).

The UI that registers communications sometimes isn't too responsive, particularly when multiple ppl are trying to register/click at the same time. Note that when someone else is communicating, you can "initiate" communications by clicking on your communication card (it will change the colour of the outline), but you won't be able to actually communicate using the token until all other preceding players have completed their communications in turn (if they also initiated communication).

And of course, you cannot communicate once a hand has begun play.

I found I was often trying to click on the communication token, which doesn't work. You have to click on the card part and avoid the green token. Maybe that's what happened to you too?

Still -- why not have the positioning of the helmet happen automatically? A playable card is either high, or low, or only.

I am now getting why the communications are sometimes possible, sometimes not.

Unfortunately the game implementer has rejected any of the bugs that were reported that pointed out that if a card is the only one of a suit the token must go in the middle as they believe it can legitimately be put at the top or bottom.
