If you're going to move it, move it to the right.

More people have a widescreen monitor than a tall monitor.

None of that info over there is viewed as much during the game, as the map and action buttons are. The same goes for all of that menu stuff on the left.
The monitor screen should be filled with the game that you are playing. All other info should be available with the scroll.

If you have to have anything to the right or left of the map, it should be the action buttons.




I like this idea also .... This would also open the area for larger pixel maps . The menu on the left was replaced with the jump to your next turn option and the right has a lot of valuable space taken up by player names..

Move the action buttons to the right so we can see the map and the actions at the same time.

I don't want to have to scroll up past the map to see what cards I have, or what the settings are. For premium players who are playing a lot of games ("a lot" being purely subjective; some consider 8 a lot) it can be difficult to keep track of individual games, so having all the pertinent information right by the action buttons is a big deal. At least it is for me.

I'd suggest instead of forcing the change, make it an option, so those who want it can move it, and those who like it where it is can leave it. I also think there are probably better things to work on than changing minor layout issues like this. (though for me, if you changed it, it would not be a minor thing, it would greatly decrease my enjoyment, much like the last attempt at change for change's sake)


=D> Well said Serbia. Please leave as is (or make it an option) 8-[. It is best below - not above or beside. With so many different setting available and needing to know what cards I have, :!: I think it's very important information to have it close at hand and not have to keep scrolling up and down (or side to side) in every game.

be careful with polling lack. change is almost universally unwelcome unless you are addressing a serious pain point.

Not often do we agree, but it is so here.
Also, MrBeen reciently ran a poll of users "screen sizes". I could be wrong, but I believe that while many people DO have large monitors, the majority are still using small ones. It is not a very pleasant experience to scroll up and down with each attack. Especially when it is so unnecessary. There is plenty of space wasted on both sides of the map that are NOT needed during play. Just make those items the things that you scroll to. And give those that have small monitors, the opportunity to play, without having to scroll up and down, every time that they roll the "intensity cubes". ;)

Clickable maps are something different than all of this. ;) And it is currently in development :)

Keep the action buttons though. Clickable is easier in someways but it just doesn't feel right to me.

Just think of the 1200x800 (900x600 in the small version) maps we could have.... =P~
