GAME OPTIONS

The game interface offers numerous facilities. In the Game Management option there are four buttons. The first and the last are used to switch between the interface panels, the question mark directs a player to the help file and the X button helps a player leave the game.

On the right of the bar there are two "dots".

The upper dot shows the current server connection:
   1. Dark green - active;
   2. Orange - ping exceeds 30 sec.;
   3. Red - no connection (the connection will be restored automatically in a while),
   4. Light green - connection restoring.

Clicking the lower dot disconnects and reconnects to the server. It is useful in case of connection problems or disconnection.

TIPS

To facilitate using the interface and to make it more salient we have introduced TIPS. They are small descriptive windows, which are displayed when we move the cursor to some elements in the interface, e.g. "dots" above the chat, a player's nick from the player's list and so on.

The list of players in room:

Having double-clicked a player's nick, you will see the detailed information about them:

Player: The name of the player;

Language: The language selected by the player;

Best result: The best result of the player;

Best time: The longest time the player managed to play;

Games completed: The number of the games the player has played;

Games abandoned: The number of games the player abandoned and has non completed;

Inactive: The time the player has not performed any operations (a move, chat discussion);

Ping: It shows how much time it will take for the player's move (or a chat message) to reach the opponent.

Double-clicking the player's nick with the right button enters the player's nick to the chat bar.
