Board Game Arena

I understand wanting to be helpful, but it causes more problems if everyone has this turned on and no one comes back to the table to see if they can help others out. I'm in a current game where 3/4 of the people have it set to automatically always agree on the distress beacon and there have been times I'm stuck needing help but I don't know which way to suggest we go to try to have one of the people next to me help me out.

As the person who wants to distress knows best why, they should also know in which direction it works best right?

They can set it up automatically, but if you click that you need help, then it’s not automatic anymore. They need to go in the game and click for themselves. You can type in the chat, that you don’t know the directions, if they don’t understand the problem.

Only when you think, that another person needs a card from you, but not if you need a card to even complete the task. For example, you have to win a card with a 7, but don’t have one. Then you don’t know from which direction it should be given best.

There is no task like winning with seven in Planet 9.
