Improve Card Holder UI When Too Many Cards

11 votes

The card holder UI does not appropriately display cards when a player's hand has too many cards. This can sometimes result in a problematic UI as it becomes more difficult to interact with other actions/icons that are now blocked by the player's cards.

Note: This game was played on a 13 inch laptop.

If you have a rock card (which goes last in order) and a rock port and you have too many cards, then you can't use the port since tapping one rock will prompt the trading screen which blocks cards past a certain point (in this case all the rock).

This can happen for any card save brick and maybe wood depending on how much of each you have.

To clarify, in the video you see I can't click two rocks, so if i had the rock port, it would be unusable unless i get rid of the other cards, is it possible to implement a scrolling system after we are past some cards (or I guess there was talks of just numbering cards but I low-key don't like that aesthetic, i love seeing all my cards)

The badge icon shows the number of cards. Hence you do not have to fan the cards to indicate multiples. This will save the horizontal space and not make it overlap over the resource icons.

I agree but the card fanning should only be temporarily collapsed when the width of fanned cards interferes with the UI buttons. Once the number of cards is sufficiently reduced the fanning should automatically be enabled again.
