Coming/Wanted

In no order

Team remake

• Team Remake - Partially made

Contact center

• Extra facility
• Ability to pay some crystals to do a "give contacts check" on a person. Gives you a list of contacts you have, but the other one don't.

Ground buildings

ideas: (maybe I just want some of them) - https://plus.google.com/u/0/+ErikMelkersson/posts/RihtGHzbhNM

• You may be involded in a building on the ground
• It should cost to build such a thing.
• A building requires at least 3(?) players involved to be active. (one per color is best)
  • Maybe have a "module" per level you are, that may be inserted into those?
• Players may "harvest" from it. Daily or something.
• A building gives something to the involved people
  • Whenever someone harvest from it
  • Maybe score too?
• A cost to upgrade, the best contributor(s) per levels get something.
  • You may only contribute max X per day or something.
• It may be moved a certain path per user and day

Bug handling

Note: Only a few displayed here

• Fix bug: "Invalid worker" when placing many workers with lots of network errors. Possible solution: Apply actions even if they can not be sent again. Will that help?
• Check bugs at: https://bitbucket.org/erik_melkersson/color-planet/issues/
• Avoid sending several email when using new device

Automated bug handling

• Report errors I catch with analytics. For example when paring data from server
• Analytics with waiting for server times

UI feature requests

• Would be nice if the option to "bring home all workers" was added to fountains and portals
• Could you add an option to view only treasures? Also, when a treasure spawns on top of a fountain, it can be difficult to select the treasure and not the fountain beneath it (solved when not seeing/clicking on treasures)
• Setting to not see, or at least not click on fountains

Mixed feature requests

• On start on color selection: show player count of colors on existing active players
• Minimize amount of contacts codes in that chat to avoid bloating
• Ability to buy anonymous support markers for someone else

Automated trades

• System automatically add trade offers from time to time... every 23 hours? (removed as usual after a week) - Some kind of transmitter part for crystals?

Collectibles

Today you may actually collect "contacts", but that is not enough...

• Collectibles, that you can make something lasting with. The collectibles may be found in treasures.

Documentation

• Wiki page with info to translators
  • General info about some words and how to translate them
  • Info about app, bitbucket etc
  • Info about wiki

Player motivation

• ... missions, gives you some motivation. What I would like to have some kind of RPG aspect in it. Having a character and to gather equipement for it (buy it for crystals or find it in treasures). Also, there could be some more interesting things in treasures, like "Whip of impatience" which when used doubles the collecting speed of your workers for a short time period, or "Lasso" which when used extends your range, so that you could collect treasures from 160 metres instead of 80. Or stuff like this...

More Treasure Hunt

• Another variant of Treasure Hunt: Start it, you get a limited time, say 30 minutes to visit (pretty close) existing fountains. You get stuff on how many (and maybe what colors?) you have visited in that time and get stuff. Either you get stuff instantly (increasing "value" with every visit) or get it afterwards.
