Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if any.
When counting the icons of each player, the interface shows wrong information, (for example saying I have 0 of every icon even though I have multiple cards in play). It miscoutned for both players and impacted on sharing dogmas, as I had to share every dogma even though I had more icons than my opponent.

Report history
Same problem. Moves 11, 12 and 13 I think Green cards not having icons recognised (not sure about other cards yet)
Screen capture available: imgur.com/a/UhilxMj
The bug occurred when I used Classification. I took two cards from my opponent, but when I tried to meld them, I received an error: "Unexpected Error. Error occurred while processing data request. 6S9 02/22 23:49:51"
Eventually, the error went away and I was able to meld the cards. However, that is when the icon count began to display incorrectly. I have not taken any more moves since then, since icons are critical.
This is a tournament game.
My opponent's icon count is currently correct (he only has The Wheel in play), but I suspect that any new meld will kill his count, too.
I would specify the move # here, too, except the game is literally showing that it's "Move #1", which is totally not correct: I had my first half-turn, then he and I have taken a full turn each.
This game is a little bit more advanced, though, and he has his purple cards splayed left. And I notice that the icons that the game /is/ counting correspond exactly to the icons that are visible in the splayed /column/ of his purple stack.
What do I mean by "column"? I mean all the icons that would be visible in a left splay—including the one icon on the top card /in the position that would be visible if there were another card on top of that top card/—but not including the other icons on the top card.
So at least this behaviour appears to be consistent.
I /really/ hope that these counts are merely for players' benefit and not what the game is /actually/ using to calculate dogma effects.
Move #58
In our case, when mattyadams used optics (move #55) at 9:07 it had the correct icon count for both of us (Matty 7; Sleevs 4) and Sleevs did not share (correctly, Matty had more crowns). When Matty then used optics again (move #56) at 9:12 it said Matty had zero crowns (which is not possible because at the least Matty had to have had optics showing in order to use it, which has three crowns, plus he had two other crowns showing in addition to optics for a total of 5) but it still had the correct crown count for Sleevs (4). Because the icon count incorrectly showed 0 crowns for Matty, optics was shared (0-4) even though it should not have been shared because the correct count was 5-4.
The following turn Sleevs melded Paper (move #57), making the bulb count Sleevs 5 to Matty's 2. So when Sleevs then used paper (move #58) it should not have been shared, but because the game is apparently going by the all-zeroes icon count (even though the images are correct and clearly show the 5-2 bulb count) it was shared because the game thought the bulb count was 0-0 (which, again, is impossible because if paper is used that means at least the two bulbs on the paper card are showing).
So the rules have not been followed twice now, having a significant material impact on the game both times, because the icon count inexplicably went to zero resulting in dogma sharing where there should have been no sharing.
I do not have an F5 key, and reloading the page did not resolve the problem -- icons count is still all zeroes for both players, even though the board clearly shows that many icons are visible and should be showing up in the icon counts.
We have played literally HUNDREDS of games of Innovation on BGA since 2018 and this is the first time we have ever seen anything like this.
Please fix soonest! We will not continue the game until the correct icon count is restored. So you can go ahead and view the game at boardgamearena.com/9/innovation?table=213364629 and read the game log there. Thank you.
Still not working on Table #213529188 :(
Thanks for your efforts Micah!
Game 211981708
I'm going to go ahead and mark this as fixed since things are as restored as it is possible for me to do. I apologize for this disruption, and I hope that the news that expansions are being actively worked on will soften the blow.

- Another table ID / move ID
- Did F5 solve the problem?
- Did the problem appears several time? Everytime? Randomly?
