Longest Road Broken Animation stuck on loop

7 votes

A player had a road length 5. I cut it with a settlement to 4 and then built my 5th road. The animation kept alternating between the player that just lost the road and myself.

admin edit: fixed, v87 (thanks Jeff d'Eon)

The new animated overlay that announces Longest and Largest is repeatedly appearing. It appears to have happened when there was a tie and then wouldn’t stop even when the tie was broken.

Probably a bad idea anyway to cover the play area, at least without a way to turn off as a setting for players. Relying on the chat window is fine.

It's been there a couple of releases now, so annoying. (Both the bug and that it likely won't get fixed)

It does the same animation at the beginning of every turn. It seems like the longest road logic is still pretty faulty.

Just a note that this just happened to us in a game. Same thing as the YT link above.

Just saw this for longest road. Perhaps that animation can be moved to the water? It gets annoying over and over again when you are trying to see the board.
