There are lots of mechanics or abilities that allow heroes or overlord to react to actions made by others. In your groups, how do you handle these choices?

For example, if I'm the overlord and I decide to move a goblin past the wildlander, do you move them until they are adjacent and ask the wildlander if they want to use nimble? Or do you just do the action and see if they speak up? If you just go on with your action and a minute later they realized they wanted to jump back, do you let them go back?

What about when a hero is performing a move action - do you ask them to go slow and then play your tripwire (or other trap) as soon as they enter a specific square? Or do you ask the hero to go back to the square where you wanted to have played that card? I seem to always forget to play it when I wanted, and then I feel I can't ask them to go back.

How do your groups handle these timing issues?
