[1862]Some maybe unnecessary fix
So implementation in online game are against the rule,but these situations barely occur and it might be unnecessary to fix them,I will list them here for you to decide: 1.In a company's first OT,if its home base tile does not contain a track tile yet,it has to build a track,according to rulebook page 12,top right corner paragraph.But in online games,you can skip the building action. 2.In a company's first OT,if the company needs to upgrade track to make room for its home station marker,the upgrade action will happen AFTER the option to merge,the marker will be put aside by the station and treat as it has full connection to all tracks on the tile,see more explanation here:https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2837311/get-confused-first-operating-round-rules,there's a FAQ and a official ruling by Mike in it. In online games,it seems that the company is allow to build track before merge. 3. When a player under obligation fails to float that chartered company,he cannot sell shares he bought in the current SR to pay the fine(I asked Mike and that's what he said).But in online games,he can.
#1 this was not my intention. Do you have a link to a game where this doesn't happen?
#2 will be difficult to implement, but I'll take a look. This had not been clarified when I implemented this on 18xx.games.
As far as #3 goes, I'm pretty frustrated. I asked Mike about this on BGG and never saw any clarification. He still hasn't clarified what happens to a player that loses all their money. In addition, there has been a lot of debate about whether what you said is true - specifically does the penalty action occur during or after a SR. Can you provide a link to a ruling?
- https://18xx.games/game/79750 it's my turn,and if you click "skip(track)",you can skip the track building.
3 .I send Mike a Geekmail yesterday and this is a screenshot of his reply.I think by saying this he means the fine is pay during SR and you cannot sell shares you bought during this SR to pay it,consistent with his clarification on solo rule here,when he said "1. you're not allowed to sell it until the next SR"in the reply to Wilbert.https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2377083/article/34159073#34159073
