25 Dec 2017 18:19 • lorean • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

With alien archeology it matters which die is used. I tried selecting one to scout with, but unintuitively it selected one to use for me instead.

25 Dec 2017 19:11 • ufm • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

This was implemented. You can choose what die to use before clicking action button.

25 Dec 2017 19:19 • ufm • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Click the die to use first, then click the action button to perform something. It worked for me.

4 Jan 2018 19:27 • jrr • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

This was a bug for me today. I had Alien Archaeology in play and 4 dice in explore phase: 2 white, 2 yellow. First I selected a yellow die and Stocked, and the yellow die was properly used to get $4. However, I wasn't sure if I wanted to use the other yellow die to Stock or not yet, so I wanted to Scout with the two white dice first to see what I'd get. I selected a white die, selected to Scout, and it ended up using the yellow die instead.

4 Jan 2018 19:29 • jrr • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

I forgot to mention, this occurred for me on table #36519228. I'm not sure what move it was on as I didn't notice it at the time and the Replay function wasn't working properly.

10 Jan 2018 23:29 • Thaarook • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Clicking on the die before selecting the action does NOT solve this problem, even with the red outline on the die it still picked the wrong one and it doesn't even follow a pattern when auto-picking, sometimes starting from the top and sometimes from the bottom. If the dice selection is supposed to be implemented it's not working at all as of today.

19 Jan 2018 18:16 • ShimokitaJer • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

I agree that this is not fixed. I experienced the same issue on Table #36961198

21 Jan 2018 19:15 • GamePimp • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

It appears this always selects your yellow dice first. If that's the case, can we at least change the stock button to show +$4 instead of +$2 so we can visually reinforce that the yellow die is being selected.

1 Feb 2018 05:04 • czarb • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

#37231872 Additional instances of this bug

1) Move 46, Yellow die is phase selection, Red die "clicked/selected", Scout, yellow die is used.

I, therefore, assume top down order of use.

2) Move 62, White die over Yellow die, neither are phase selection die, Neither die "selected" assuming "top down automatic preference", Scout, Yellow die is used

15 Apr 2018 18:55 • nandblock • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Had this bug occur last night, table 39488317--two times, in fact. I wanted to Scout first, so I deliberately selected a non-yellow die... and it picked the yellow die anyway, so my later Stock action was only $4 not $2 :(

25 Apr 2018 00:20 • Flibberdyjib • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

BTW, we should also be able to select which die we use for produce and ship actions. E.G. I want to consume a good with my space docks die rather than a colour match, because I'd rather the extra die next turn rather than the extra point.

6 Nov 2018 07:36 • Manzaa • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Table #45228171
move 146/147
Tried to select the white die for scouting and leave yellow for using with Alien Archaeology. Game automatically selects yellow die. Annoying as hell!

23 Dec 2018 18:42 • Mithodiel • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Table #46511324, somewhere between moves 309 and 312 -- Selected white die for Stock action, but yellow die gets used.

4 Feb 2019 17:35 • Ragnarokawaits • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Table #48138805 Move #109-110, same issue. 1st die selected (also on top): yellow, stock $4 total. Selected (w/ red box) a second yellow die, further down the list, chose Stock, and it used the topmost white die, gained $2.

25 Mar 2019 23:49 • MasN • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Table #50081330 move #66 same issue

25 Mar 2019 23:50 • MasN • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

I clicked a white dice before 'scout', and it was red-outlined, so that deceived me.

25 Mar 2019 23:54 • MasN • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

This happened again when the yellow dice wasn't at the top. At the very least, if the players can't choose which dice to use, can they at least know which dice is getting used?

3 Apr 2019 08:11 • nandblock • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

This happens to me all the time, and I won't play Roll for the Galaxy again until it's definitely fixed.

21 Jul 2019 20:54 • macpuddock • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

This is still an issue. I had 2 starter and 1 alien die on scout. I selected a white die and the options were 2$ or scout tiles. I chose to scout tiles and my alien die was used.

25 Jul 2019 16:41 • macpuddock • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Please let us know when this is fixed. The Alien Archaeology starter world effect is useless now unless you only scout with alien dice, which is not practical.

27 Jul 2019 02:56 • macpuddock • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

I am done. I am not going to play this game again until you fix this. Had 4 explorers, one alien die at the bottom of the 4, I select the top one (white) to explore, and you pick the alien die to explore - the only thing I wanted out of this phase was to stock with alien and explore with the rest.

Alien archaeology is a starter world, and if you get it you are screwed.

14 Sep 2019 07:27 • ken258 • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Well after so many games u should know it WILL use yellow dices first.
So get familliar with it. It doesnt need to be fixed.

4 Oct 2019 20:51 • nandblock • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Please don't scold someone for a perfectly reasonable request.

I have no idea why such an easily implementable fix, which causes problems for countless players, remains unfixed two years later.

11 Oct 2019 15:07 • Manzaa • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Please check out this problem, tried to select the dice to use but it doesn't work that way.

21 Oct 2019 19:17 • UrzaMTG • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

I'm also encountering this, selecting the die doesn't change the action. The least they could do is to change the text of the Stock button to indicate that you'll get $4 when you stock with the current die.

7 Jan 2020 21:13 • mrears • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Just encountered this issue as well. Made sure to select a white die to scout (in case that was how selecting die for actions worked), however it used my yellow (alien) die instead.

14 Apr 2020 12:08 • CalaveraNM • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

I encountered this bug today in game #73867685

My yellow die was the lower die of two in the action. I selected the white, first die before choosing to scout and it still took the yellow die. The first die stayed selected.

17 Apr 2020 04:35 • mazer rackham • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Occurred in game #75477392. White die selected, clicked Scout, but it took the yellow die instead.

8 Jun 2020 07:14 • Bear na • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

+1

#93944422

Several times in the game, I select some non-yellow die, press Scout, and yellow die gets used.

Feels bad to lose game due to this silliness... And there's not backsies.. you watch game slip away from you due to no fault of yours...

1 Jul 2020 05:04 • Amysland • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Same issue on Table #98815117 only this time it really impacted game play. I wasn't able to determine which die was going to be used and therefore was unable to consistently use a power on my tile than allowed me to get more money for the Alien die

3 Jul 2020 19:44 • FBRB32 • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Agree, same problem thwarted my plans today. Since it didn't say "Stock (+$4)" on the stock button, I assumed it was using a white die first, but it wasn't.

17 Oct 2020 16:44 • shadowphiar • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Despite earlier comments, the game ignores any die you select, and seems always to use the yellow one first. (Even if you remember that it does this, it means you can't see what tiles you get before deciding whether you want to get cash or not). This issue unfairly affects the balance of starting worlds.

22 Nov 2020 12:20 • smudgepuss • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Still happening (game 125997487). Cost me the win too!

19 Dec 2020 17:26 • Bent Knob • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

We regularly encounter this bug in our games, very frustrating and probably has caused players to lose the game more than once. I THINK it always pulls the yellow die first no matter what (I'll post back next time it happens). Very frustrating

29 Dec 2020 08:55 • blahedo • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Still happening; table No 134845909 Move #98. I clicked the white cube to scout but the yellow cube was used, tried it again (assuming misclick) and it used the second yellow die to scout as well, so I was left with the two white dice to stock ($4 total instead of $8).

16 Jan 2021 01:30 • matgz • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Ok that happened on my first game, so I'm not crazy that still is a bug. This wasted my alien+4 to explore :(

24 Jan 2021 18:29 • clr_bc • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

This happened to me today. It is really very annoying.

4 Feb 2021 12:35 • nandblock • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Just uselessly adding to the thread.... This is sad.

24 Feb 2021 10:59 • TermiGator • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

And here to. Select a die, don't select a die. Doesn't make a difference. I just lost 4 credids and possibly the game this way

Do u guys know HOW LONG this is ignored?
3years. what can u expect?
:/

10 Apr 2021 23:44 • astro1919 • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

It works to click on the die you want to use, and then to hit the button to scout. But you have to really careful about it.

15 Apr 2021 04:59 • rhiwerewolf • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

I just encountered this bug, in Firefox (April 14th 2021). I specifically clicked on the blue die before scouting. When I got back from scouting, my yellow die sat wasted in the citizenry, and my blue die was still selected. I lost $2 because of what is obviously an interface bug. It was _STILL SELECTED_, so I had clearly clicked it. It just didn't care that I had.

1 May 2021 11:43 • Wildeflit • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

I encountered this bug three times today so I have a good idea what is happening. With a Yellow and any other dies on explore, no matter what dice is selected the game always picks the yellow first, no matter what order they are on the explore. If you don't hit Stock while you have a yellow dice there you'll lose your chance to Stock it.

Game #168739289 and #168755363 I had this starter.

29 May 2021 17:37 • obsidian_octagon • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Unfortunately I think there hasn't been a BGA developer for Roll for the Galaxy in many years, so any current bugs will probably remain until a developer can be found. I don't know the complete situation, but this is my impression. The current bugs don't make the game unplayable and are mainly an annoyance in my opinion. There are specific bugs that completely stop the game, but these situations thankfully don't come up very often. Hopefully someday all these bugs will be fixed. Maybe soon, maybe 5 years from now, or maybe never. Time will tell.

16 Aug 2021 09:32 • Karlsen • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Game 194567135 - I selected a white die to scout. I could see it highlighted, but then when I pressed scout it used the yellow die, thus robbing me of the opportunity to use the yellow die when I wanted to. When producing goods or shipping goods, it uses the selected die, but not when scouting. This is wrong.

8 Feb 2022 05:51 • AerynReklaw • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

With alien archaeology you get more money for stocking with the yellow die. I clicked on a white die and searched for tiles, planning to reserve my yellow die for stocking later. Instead of using the white die I had clicked on, it used my yellow die to search for tiles instead, robbing me of the $2 extra I would have earned for stocking with the yellow die.

this is not a suggestion, this is a bug. it is still not fixed after four years!

i stopped playing the game because of this bug.

6 Dec 2022 18:38 • Gabrute • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

This bug still remaining on mobile (iOS 16 iPhone 11 Pro ; Google Chrome)

I encountered this bug two times on my actual game (Table #320564914)

25 Dec 2022 06:58 • Red_Foxxx • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

This bug remains. After I abandoned a tile, I attempted to scout using a white die. I selected the white die, but it used my unselected yellow die.

19 Jan 2023 05:47 • Atlemar • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Happened to me today. I clicked on the white die to explore and save the yellow die for the +$2 but it repeatedly spent the yellow. Later I clicked on the yellow die to stock and it spent a white die instead.

19 Jan 2023 16:14 • Ehrine • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Just got hit by this on game #337958198. Action was showing "Scout" as $2 so I assumed it was forcing use of the white die so did Stock first, but it spent the yellow die depriving me of $2

20 Jan 2023 15:46 • ThatScar • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

The result of a scout with a white die may impact your decision of how you want to use the yellow die, depending on what you scouted (maybe you want to scout again with yellow or maybe you're OK with what you got and want the stock +4$).
This is allowed by the rules but the interface does not facilitate this - it always uses the yellow die first, despite player input (selecting a die has no impact).

I've copy-pasted the above from the BUG REPORT that's marked as "The interface blocked me from doing a game action authorized by the rules" instead of a suggestion. boardgamearena.com/bug?id=15644
I recommend upvoting that for the moment.
This report should be changed to a bug from a suggestion!

24 Mar 2023 17:20 • TimmyCha • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

I tried to select a yellow dice, red outline engaged but it still used the red dice that was at the top of the stack and there is no undo for some reason. This did not appear to be fixed

14 Sep 2023 19:04 • alephander • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

bumping this report to keep it active. closing in on 6 years!

1 Apr 2024 14:37 • cubato • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

I had Ancient Technology (yellow die stock action = 4$) and Major Research Lab (act as if you have an extra white die in explore phase) in my tableau. During the explore phase I had a yellow, “extra” white, and red die (in that order, with yellow being my die that selected the phase. I wanted to scout with the white die before doing stock with yellow die, so I selected the white die and clicked scout. Unfortunately the yellow die was used instead of the white die.Table #492157122, Move #209)

12 Jul 2024 01:42 • Cyborgs Gaming • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Why is this still not getting fixed? Again I had money stolen because the game took away the yellow die even though I had a different die selected. Even if you couldn't select the die then it still should automaticly use the yellow die last. Instead the rules are ignored, my input is ignored. And the game makes a stupid move on its own that I would never make and I was not allowed to make my own choices. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED!!!

12 Aug 2024 15:14 • Maalstrom • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

I should get 4£ for my yellow dude…. I selected the white die to get a new tile and the yellow guy disappeared it also told me I would only get £2 …. The options leading me to further think it was the white die being used… bad programming needs fixing as it has now impeded my enjoyment of this game a number of times

7 Sep 2024 02:11 • LeepinLeemur • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

Happened again today in 559509161

27 Dec 2024 13:47 • Stormur • Această sugestie nu a fost analizată încă de dezvoltatori:

It is still not working. I selected a non-alien (yellow) die and the interface had as option "stock +2", so I thought I was safe and went for exploring. Instead, the alien die was used. It is not clear at all if there is a logic, like starting from the bottom die, which would however be counterintuitive when there is a die determining the phase.
