Goods on windfall worlds.

Post by danielvictor »

I realise the interface is well known for not resolving things until everybody has completed an action - when those actions are simultaneous. And this is a minor quibble.But surely goods should appear on windfall worlds as soon as they are played - as opposed to when everybody has completed the settle action ?

If you play the game with a physical deck of cards, everybody would select a card to play, which are then revealed at the same time. After a windfall world is revealed, a card is added to the world to show it has a good in it. Here in BGA, adding the card to the windfall world after everybody has completed the settle action simulates this same behavior. There is no functional difference in any case as you cannot use the good before next actions. I am guessing another reason for the current behavior is that coding wise, it is simpler to check the game state and update the graphics after all settles resolve.
