      Question: If I put a critical on a tile with 2 Red above, 2 Yellow to the left, 2 Green below and 2 Purple to the right, what order does damage resolve?

      Answer: Top to bottom, left to right.

    Am I interpreting this correctly that the program scans from top-to-bottom, left-to-right (meaning that the resolution order is Red, Yellow, Purple, then Green), and not answer's literal interpretation (Red, Green, Yellow, then Purple)?

    That's how I interpreted it Red is at the top, next highest are Yellow and Purple, (so run left to right), with Green being bottom.

    One of the unaddressed questions was regarding supports in PvP - is there an update, or similar wording.

    Well, after updating to R298, I found that PvP had supports active on offense. Within an hour of posting about it on Discord there was a data push that removed them.

    In any case, it seems like work is continuing to some degree.

    Actually I think its Red yellow GREEN then purple.

    Red first (RRcT), then yellow (YYcT), Green (Where the crit is the first green cTGG) and purple last (cTPP)

    It will read the green after the yellow

    Interesting point. I think you're right. Had overlooked the fact that the critical was the first tile in the match 3 for Green.
