Chess 960 implementation #39

Closed Frits-Support closed 9 years ago

Frits-Support commented 10 years ago

Is there a schedule or plan to implement Chess960 into the PicoChess software ?

sshivaji commented 10 years ago

With new setup position mode support, this can be done via clock buttons. No other thing needs to be added in. Setup position mode will be released soon as 0.31.

What shiv said is correct. I updated the code abit to take into account the special castling rules chess960 has.

There are some limits coming from "setup pos", like missing EP square, moved before R,K => cant castle anymore even the pieces are at correct place.

AND (in chess960 mode): only inner rook has the right for castle like Ke1,Rg1,Rh1 and the Rh1 isn't allowed for castle (moved before). This i won't fix.

issue to be closed soon.
