Moving tiles -- look at mouse pointer, not tile
-
Windows 10, V2, Desktop, FF 90.0.2 and previous....
People have been commenting about jumping tiles, tiles not sticking, etc.
Perhaps some players are not aware that the tile goes to where the mouse points, not where the tile appears to be on the board, during "dragging" the tile from the rack to the board. Often (but not always) the tile lags the mouse pointer during the move, and releasing the mouse button can make the tile "jump" or go back to the rack. The property of the tile's not following the mouse precisely may be a function of many things (slow computer? not my case... -- mouse settings? maybe. Moving pointer too fast? don't think so.)
Whatever, if one doesn't realize that the pointer is controlling, then the tiles may appear to move in unexpected ways.
So I recommend watching the pointer, not the tile, while dragging.Am I the only one who sees this behavior?
(I think in the Flash version I never experienced this kind of lag...the tile moved with the pointer.)

Tiles move just fine... closely follow mouse, etc. While dragging, some part of the tile is always covered by the mouse pointer. Generally the pointer is close to the center. But if I point to the edge of the tile, just a little on the tile, it also moves properly.So it seems to be something with Firefox.

Screenshot: mouse pointer was in center of square to the right of the M tile; button down and dragging the tile. Typical situation.
Good luck trying to debug this!
(It is not a deal-breaker for me...I love the game anyway!) -
