alignment of a layer after a move

[bcube2]

People without a real cube, who will use a computer simulator to solve the cube instead, would maybe appreciate if there were some authomatical alignment after moving a layer. Right now they can either perform a move precisely or make another additional move (second part of the move to be specific) becuase the layer is stuck inbetween.

If it is too difficult to make, fotget it. People will be forced to perform a precise move, which is a good habit for a real cube anyway ;-)

It works the same as the original, doesn't it? It does auto-align but it has to be pretty close.

"It works the same as the original, doesn't it?" Yes, it does. In other words potentional end users would maybe appreciate better alignment in case of Java applets too.

" It does auto-align but it has to be pretty close." True, thus sometimes it is required to do another part of the intended move. From my experience, these "alignment/partial" moves can be very annoying.

As I was saying, it is not worth it to make better from alignment point of view (see pCubes for example) if it is too much work.

Try this: http://www.irbsystems.com/test2/snap/test.html I added parameter "snap"

For me as a solver is a usage of snap parameter better, thank you for doing it. The solves are more fluent now, without lock-ups.

If I was a nitpicker, I would say the motion is a little bit fast. Maybe I am just influenced by other simulators I use (Werner's one for instance), so other people would be more suitable to say if it is excellent or "only" good. Maybe everyone's taste is different. Maybe everyone's solving style is different as well (especially true for a real cubes).

Anyhow, don't forget to update your new parameters page ;-)
