We need a way of selecting a new piece after a pawn is promoted. My ideas so far are:

I think we should have the pieces go beside the board when taken, and glow when a pawn is up for promotion.

Btw, where my .obj meshes at, foo?

Sounds good.

I forwarded the email to Alexander.. he hasn't gotten back to me yet. And he lives way too far away for me to go ask.

I feel like having a pop-up is the best of those options, as the rest are less intuitive. I could make the graphics to work with it.

  • Pop-up window
  • Click on another of the same piece (only works if taken pieces are displayed at the side of the board or something)
  • Press a key for the piece you want

Sounds good. Just remember - no text. Feel free to set the art direction on this, by the way.
