Ditto on both of the above. I see something similar to guided/chaosred: whenever the player list refreshes, the text box loses focus, and this makes it entirely impossible to actually type into it. Also sort of frustrating when trying to select restrictions from the dropdown menus. (Browser, OS: Firefox, Linux). Not insurmountable, but definitely quite difficult to use.

The identical starting hands for automatch would be great and I'd 100% use it, though I worry that it might not be a good idea to clutter the automatch with a zillion different options and we already have veto mode and point tracker and set biasing, so it's definitely a judgement call on where to stop putting more in.

I would also very much like an identical starting hands option for automatch.

I wouldn't use identical starting hands but agree it should be an option. Get rid of set biasing and auto-match setup will be perfect (apart from ¨everybody agrees before the kingdom is revealed mode).

Oh no! Sorry for the doublepost! I thought my first one didn't go through. My bad.

Thisisnotasmile · « **Reply #29 on:** September 16, 2011, 06:57:22 pm »

I think there's an echo in here.

Would it be hard for the veto cards to be sorted by price before veto selection? Maybe it's just a particular weakness I have, that I remember pretty well what the cards do, and if you asked me what a card costs I could probably tell you, but when I see them all thrown together for veto purposes it's hard for me to grasp what the price distribution of the kingdom will be. And I guess more than anything else, that is something I'm interested in balancing when I select for veto.

Request: After declining a game automatch with someone, wait at least, say, 5 seconds before matching up with them again. It's just kinda weird when you hit reject and get the same person immediately again. I've done it a few times when I figured the other person was just afk; I've had it done to me after I rejected a kingdom set (game auto-matched us again and the person hit reject twice within three seconds - I guess he was offended

)

Yeah, I'd played 200 games before I understood someone might reject the game and not me.

If you reject an auto-match with me more than once, I typically reject all further auto-matches with you automatically (what, picking sets? Use the non auto-match option) and put you on my "do not accept matches with" list.

Auto-match should really not show the board beforehand. Veto-mode already does that.

Slurms · « **Reply #35 on:** October 11, 2011, 08:11:47 pm »

I'd like a auto-match where I can select the usual options (2 player, +/- 10...) and then just be thrown into a game. No allowance for choosing the kingdom or player. Just game on! :-)

Identical starting hands option for auto-match.

Agreed, why is this not in yet?

Davio · « **Reply #37 on:** October 14, 2011, 03:05:28 am »

Another thing, whenever I start typing card names in the require card(s) box, after a second or so it loses focus and I have to click it again to continue typing. This is really annoying.

Sure, I can type somewhere else and just copy-paste, but this is tedious.

Can you fix this?

pooka · « **Reply #38 on:** October 18, 2011, 02:43:33 pm »

I've found a good place to type them is in the chat box.

So require games are unranked. Are constraints? That should be a way to get colony, but requesting a $9 card.

So, does this thread have any use? Identical starting hands option for automatches was proposed several times, seems like a minor change that would make many people happy - if this is not realized, why bothering with any requests?
This shall not be understood as insulting the creator of isotropic which did and does some great job there, but as a question what all these requests are good for.

Thisisnotasmile · « **Reply #40 on:** October 18, 2011, 04:03:06 pm »

I'm pretty sure that with the impending removal of Isotropic from the public domain, DougZ isn't really interested in making any more minor tweaks and/or adjustments. Only he can confirm this though.

pooka · « **Reply #41 on:** October 18, 2011, 07:51:32 pm »

I hadn't heard that.

Is it going subscription?

ftl · « **Reply #42 on:** October 18, 2011, 08:16:12 pm »

No. There is currently an unrelated commercial Dominion being developed. The release date of this commercial application has not been announced; I believe we know it is in development, but don't know about the progress.

The fate of Isotropic is for DougZ and DonaldX to decide, but I *believe* it's been announced that isotropic will be taken offline when the commercial version is released. I think you'll agree that it would be quite rude and unprofessional for Donald and a friend of his to keep up a free version when there are people who are paying for the license to publish a commercial version!

Sure, I just love playing with remote folks. I'll miss Doug's artwork
