Detailed description
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
This happens sometimes, like when there is only one habitat to play a bird into, but there are other cases, like when we only have the exact right food in limited quantity to feed a bird when played, or we only have the one egg available to pay when playing a bird in any column other than the first column. The standalone Steam version of Wingspan handles most of these quite nicely. Can we do the same in the BGA version?• Please explain what you wanted to do, what you did and what happened

Report history
Another player however thought it might be because brown powers are supposed to be optional, and that the programming to do that would be simpler. I've no idea if that's the case.
@Pompkin and @wentley - The rules state that you always have the option to refuse to use a bird power (page 10), so that should be available as an option in the interface. I have some improvements that should help with this type of power that will be implemented later.
One player complained about finding himself ‘zoning out’ even though that doesn't happen to him in real life, so perhaps something could be done to boost engagement, like maybe make it more obvious what the other players are doing during their turn?
