Issues with the game

I know this is a relatively new game and I expect some of these issues are known about or being fixed in the next update, but I thought I would write out everything I've noticed in one post.

The action buttons:

  1. (Major issue) I cannot raise if I don't have enough chips for the minimum raise. I should be able to do this, letting me go all in as a raise no matter how little of a raise that is. This is standard for no limit holdem. It is possible to game this. That is, if my opponent has 200k chips and I don't want to shove for all of it, then I can put in 105k chips and their only options are call or fold. They can't reraise me, so I am effectively getting a cheaper shove if I so desire.
  2. I don't like how I can select "check" out of turn when it's not possible for me to check. It shouldn't be possible to click this unless checking is actually an option, in my opinion.
  3. I also don't like how the check button turns into the call button. I can very easily go to click that button and have a raise happen suddenly (especially with lag) and then accidentally call a bet. Because of these last two points, I just never auto-check.
  4. It is also sightly problematic to have the check/fold button become the fold button because if I click it the moment it becomes my turn, then I fold when maybe I could check.
  5. I don't like the third option being "call any." You have two very passive options (check/fold and check) and then a button that says "I will auto-call some dude blasting all in preflop with 10 J." You could instead have a "call XXX" button where XXX is the current bid. If someone raises, then it deselects and you have to click it again. You could also consider a "call up to" button.

Display issues:

I have seen the devs mention display issues before, so I expect these are in the process of being fixed, but thought I would state them explicitly.

  1. Sometimes I see the wrong cards flash when a player reveals their deck (edit: just saw this in game).
  2. Sometimes a player leaves, but their avatar and protectors remain and block out whoever comes next. This causes a bug where I can't see the chips or bids of the player who is sitting there.

Edit: added another point

Logs attached.

I had a straight and Hasty-Rocket, who I was covering, won money from a "side pot" with two-pair. In the logs, it says "2.4k Returned to Hasty-Rocket," which should not happen because I had them covered.

Edit: Fixed some details.
