Show ScoreBoard in lobby (replaces end-of-game box) #242

Open SimonN opened 7 years ago

Lix 0.9

Observers have to cancel the end-of-mutliplayer box. Observers should not have to click anything at all. It's nice to save the replay, but it's even more important to have no interaction. -- Done in 0.9.

Short-term solution is to print to console. -- Done in 0.9.

Long-term solution is what? Create extra space to right of console, print table to that space?

Or observers have a behind the scenes countdown that sends them back to the lobby in 5 seconds after game ends?

The box is gone, but I still have to draw the ScoreBoard in the lobby. Thus, this bug is still open.

Right, anything involving extra screens or boxes needs special care for observers. The goal is still to allow observers input-free observing of several successive games.

I'm considering an entire screen with end-of-game statistics, including who saved which lixes. ("Ah, player X donated the most to player Y and that's why player Y won, player Z wasn't involved in the donation after all.") And possibly list how many died to traps/water/oblivion/..., then the frog can compete with the players. :-)
