Board Game Arena

Sorry if this has already been requested. I've noticed in a number of games on BGA that when certain decisions need to be made by multiple players that don't affect each other the game nevertheless forces each player to make the decisions one at a time. Maybe this is something that is determined by the particular developer of a particular game, but I have seen it in multiple games so I suspect it is some kind of limitation of the BGA system. If it is the latter case, then I imagine it might be difficult to add this ability into the system, but it would speed some games up a lot if it was possible!

It is specific to the game. There are a lot of games where decisions are made at the same time by multiple players.

OK, good to know it is not a limitation of BGA. But then we have to bug each developer individually.

Right, but that's how it has to be due to every game having different rules.

For a game like 7 Wonders where all players do a blind draft pick and reveal simultaneously, everyone picking at the same time makes sense. It already works this way on BGA.

For a complex euro game where you might change your decision based on what the player before you does, it's typically necessary to enforce turn order.
