Wrong error message when there is not enough word card to start the game #1633

Open nus-pe-bot opened 5 years ago

Since the wordcards can be added without needing to open the wordback again, the error message should inform user to add the wordcard instead of reopening the wordbank again as follows:

Open command is not like opening a file.

Open is one of the modes from the list : Home, Open, Game and Settings

Because there isn't sufficient cards, the application is prompting you to get into open mode so that you can add cards using add command (which only work in open mode.)

Below screenshot is from UG that shows open is a switch command used to switch modes. Not a bug as it is not a open file function.

Described behaviour is expected and addressed in User Guide. The error message given to user is intended to be a suggestion - note the use of the word "consider". The User may be attempting to start from a different Mode like Settings, hence the necessity to provide a generic error message to advice user to go to the Open mode before he can attempt to add more Cards
