In studio when in a state of type StateType::MULTIPLE_ACTIVE_PLAYER the debug_playAutomatically results in an error message "It is not your turn" for all players except one.

In games like Catan after doing an action you have 3 seconds (timer visible on the action buttons) to cancel or it does it automatically. I'm wondering how do I do that in my own game?

The error occurs with both ...

Is it just my project? ly_studio.js:1 Server syntax error: isrulunarpole/ ...

Hello Developers, I have created a game that is a worker placement/deck builder with a complexity of roughly 2.8 to 3.0 out of 5 on the BGG complexity scale. In terms of games with similar complexities and mechanics, you could think of Dune Imperium or Everdell base games. My game is not available publicly yet but I will ensure it satisfies BGA's requirements when we get to a certain stage of ...

The game Patchwork by Uwe Rosenberg is already implemented in BGA. But on the licenses page after pressing the button for showing all games, Patchwork is not there. Shouldn't it be there? How do we add it there? Are there other missing games on that page? I'm new to BGA Studio.

Hello ! I’m the author of Cubix, an abstract 2-player strategy game, and I’m looking for a developer interested in adapting it for BGA. Each player had 6 cubes on a 6×6 board. Each cube has 6 different faces, and cubes move by rolling on one or two squares in any direction. Goal: Bring one of your cubes to the opposite row with its red square face upward. Capture rule: When two cubes show ...
