Hi,

I'm just wondering why TDS's hint machine can't give rationale for its hint suggestions. This would be extremely helpful and if it's just going through a set of logic rules it'd seem quite simple to implement. You could hide the rationale behind a link if some players didn't want to see it.

Hello Jez

No good reason other than not enough hours in the day! It's been on the list for a while, but keeps getting overtaken by more interesting things! I'll try and get there.
