There is a problem in the game "Rush Hour" with the correct order of the action "line expansion". The correct order of placing new lines is from left to right. The system makes it in the reverse order. You can see this in the game log. I don't speek about the action choosing.

There is no problem with the game interface. In a turn, there may only be as many line actions equal to the maximum number of buses owned by any one player. That is, if Player A owns 3 buses, and all other players own 2 buses, then only 3 total line actions may be executed in a turn. Also, the order in which the actions are selected is important. The first player to select the line action will get to place the maximum number of lines on the board, but will be the last player of all eligible players to carry out this action. The second player to select the line action will get to place one fewer line, but will get to place these before the first player.

So in my example, let's say all four players selected this action in order (Player A selected first, Player D selected last). If the maximum number of buses is 3, then Player D gets to place 3 (max) - 3 (order) = 0 lines. Player C gets to place 3 - 2 = 1 line. Player B gets to place 3 - 1 = 2 lines, and Player A finally gets to place 3 - 0 = 3 lines.

In your game, since it is the first turn, the maximum number of lines that can be placed is 1, as no one has bought a bus yet. This means that only the first player to select this action can place lines, in this case 1 - 0 = 1. Any other players who selected this action will place 0 lines.

Please review the online rules if you need more information.
