#6021 new defect

Default formation can be set if the player is observer or replayer

Reported by: Imarok Owned by:
Priority: Nice to Have Milestone: Backlog
Component: UI – In-game Keywords:
Cc: wraitii Patch:

Description (last modified by Imarok)

The default formation can be set by right-clicking on a formation. This function should only be available when being the player (controlsPlayer(...) == true).

Edit: To clarify this issue: The observer won't be able to change anything of the current game. But changing the default formation as observer will affect the next game this person plays which is unexpected.

I tested this bug with "facts" (player's name, otherwise these sentences may sound very pompous). As an observer, it seems that I can change the default formation, but "facts" reported that it had no effect on his gameplay. The default formation did not change for him. I just wanted to report it.

Sure. It only changes your own config. But it might confuse players if they do something as observer and it has an effect on their next game. (I forgot to state that clearly in the tickets description.)
