Hi :) both of your tips helped a lot! With the desktop site i can find the ready button in portrait and I managed to full screen with your wizardry. How did you find out?

Hi, thanks for the update! I was very excited to try it out and tried to start a new game with a bot.

Unfortunately the update moved the buttons around even more and the "ready" button is now outside of the screen and I can't even start the game. It's in both, landscape and horizontal mode of my tablet and smartphone. Before the update it was barely visible and clickable. Sorry to bug you with it!

Edit: I could start a game in the inconvenient full screen browser which kicks you out of the session after every game. The reordering works good! There is always a orange boarder around the card one to the left of the card i am moving, which might be a minor bug.

Soon (TM). Don't get your hopes up that much, it's a smell step, nothing more.

Still smells good!

Thanks to Ingix this now works on dev, so it will be in the next release.

When do you plan the next release? I wish i could play on dev :)

[1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots]

1. An offline client, allowing you to play campaigns against bots
3/5 Would be a nice bonus but not absolutely necessary. As you wrote should come after having a good bot.

2. A bot with a setting for different play styles
4/5 Should be considered while developing 3 (strong bot).

3. A strong bot.
4/5 Would be nice to test strategies! Should include an option to choose strength especially for new players.

4. Options for timed games
2/5 Nice bonus but not necessary.

5. Options for undo settings
1/5 The present way is convenient for me.

6. Online mini-tournaments; the option to easily create one for you & your friends.
3/5 Nice Idea! I would use it. Might be nice with included counter with wins/ losses and automatic alternating start player.

7. Option to invite specific players to your table
1/5 The present way is convenient for me. If this is implemented it should be developed together with 6 (online mini-tournaments)

8. More translations (to what language?)
0/5

9. Better animations when cards are gained/bought/played/...
2/5 Could help to see what the opponent is doing, medium priority for me.

10. Better visualization of split piles, Archive/Crypt contents, Prince targets, ...
1/5 Might help

10. Option to hide the log
0/5

11. Android app (or just improved compatibility?)

5/5 Absolute number one priority!! I bought an android tablet to play dominion and it's just medium fun with it. I was very happy to see that the reordering might work in the next release. I'm fine with improved compatibility like online-go.com where making a shortcut to the website on your home screen brings the perfect version without showing the browser. It confused me in the beginning a bit but is now very convenient as it does not to be maintained and it has no updates. An additional benefit of this would be that Iphones and androids would not need separate apps. If there is an app, an offline mode against a friend or against lord rat is a must!

12. iPhone app (or just improved compatibility?) &
13. Downloadable game logs &
14. Improved moderation (dealing with chat abuse, slowplayers, ...)
0/5

15. Tutorial on how to play Dominion &
16. Tutorial on how to play dominion online.
0/5 Not necessary for me. Consider that new players who would need it will not answer in this thread.

Thank you!! I'm looking forward to it!!

A possible solution could be that both players have to accept ending the game, when they both don't want to play it.

My mate played duplicated 6 times with it. When he realized he clicked undo and ended the game instead... Dickmove but it's ok... Its my cousin :D
I think this game was after your server update stef...

[1. Chrome & Firefox:]

Hi, I also try to play Dominion on an Android tablet.

The issues with reordering are there but there is a bigger issue for me which I think could be solved quickly. I know that Android i on the TODO list of Stef, I just found some links, which could maybe help for a quick fix.

I tried different Android browsers:
1. Chrome & Firefox:
1.1: Wrong screen size
Most things are fine but some buttons are offset and partially offscreen. I think this comes from using the wrong screen size for for the positioning. The height of the address bar is not taken into account for the calculations. I found a good article about this here Calculating the real screen size tutorial (Javascript)
1.2: No Full screen
The useable screen size is drastically decreased by the address bar which can not be hidden by the settings. Only 580px height of my 800px height screen are showing dominion (30% lost). It would be great if the address bar would be hidden during games, which can be done by Javascript. Maybe this link helps you Full screen tutorial. There are some Firefox extensions to add a full screen button but it did not work. A screenshot of Firefox is attached.

2. Opera:
Only the loading page shows up and the login screen never shows up. It's ok I don't use Opera :)

3. Full Screen browser:
There are some browsers for Android, that work in Full screen mode (Browser in App store). The buttons are not offset in this browser and everything works fine. Except one annoying bug, where you are kicked out of the account as soon as a game is ended. You have to login again with that annoying on screen keyboard. This takes long enough that most players leave the table.

All options have the (partly known) minor additional issues of:
1. The reordering
2. When longclicking on a card to read it it shows but if you can afford it, you also buy it.
3. After writing something in the chat, the onscreen keyboard shows up everytime you click on something.

Maybe only fixing the kicking bug after the game would help me a lot. Enabling full screen in Chrome & Firefox would be amazing :)

Btw, a big general thank you for the otherwise great implementation!
