I don't know if this is the right forum but I suggest to recode (Riako?) the Gem Boiler because I know I put the right gem but it says that it's wrong... I lost 1 Dragon Gem.

First of all this should be in Bugs and complaints as you mentioned the problem which was happening,
second, this is very vague, you gave no details of how he should re code it, all you said was what is the problem...

Well I don't have any experience in coding and the problem is there might be a misunderstanding or the log says that I put the wrong gem but I put the right one. It might be registered as "wrong gem" instead of "right gem".

The reason why it's so vague is because you didnt give detail of what Riako should change about it.

Example of how to make your suggestion better:

Offer alternatives: When you click a gem it goes in, so you don't have to drag it. This would make it available to mobile users.

An anti- double-click feature, if you don't click ON a gem, nothing registers, and if you already put said gem in, nothing registers.

(my belief is you accidentally double clicked when dropping the gem, sometimes the click selects the nearest gem to your mouse and drops it in for you without you noticing, which is a big problem if you are prone to accidental double clicks)

___

Biggest improvement would be the anti-double click feature. If you don't click directly on the gem, nothing registers. Even if we keep the drag feature, this would probably (i emphasise PROBABLY) fix the main bug most people have.

The click to add could be a mobile only feature, that way it isn't abused (I find it much harder to click quickly on a phone) - this could work since the site already recognizes mobile in the interface.

Consider editing my helpful suggestions into the main post, you may get more support that way.

If you can read this, you know how to read.
