Drag and drop ?

complete

Maybe would be a better experience if drag and drop of checkers will also be allowed ? It would come in good completion to the click dice feature in order to play the small number firstly.

And for most new comers I feel such feature might be more intuitive.

although drag and drop is nice, i think its nicer if you click on the checker you want to move and the points highlight based on the roll

Max Sutton 🇺🇸 (maxsutton) that way it requires too many clicks to make a move (and it slows down the pace of the game considerably), because everyone would need to make two clicks to move one checker for every move (so would be 3 clicks to move 2 checkers) whereas we need the drag and drop (or click the displayed dice roll) only for the rarer cases when we need to play the smaller number first; in rest is 2 clicks to move 2 checkers.

Yes! It's not strictly necessary, but there's no real downside to having it. And it's standard for other sites, so this should be fairly high priority.

I hate drag and drop but let's see how many votes it gets!
