Chess Tools changes
Here are some quality of life improvements to Chess Tools
I've updated some aspects of the exhibition mode:
Added an undo move button
Added a review game button permanently there
Added arrows under the game log
Added a preview for the position and variant to the play menu
Added a way to play from a custom position
Added some default options to play from certain openings
Your last ten games in standard chess will be saved automatically.
You can then access them in the analysis board under "Recent Games".
They will overwrite the oldest game if you already have 10 games saved.
Added a toggle for the coordinates in Coordinate Practice.
So you can practice without any guide from the sides of the board.
Bug fixes:
Fixed a rare bug where castling would be attempted by the default engine and fail in chess 960
Fixed coordinate practice breaking when set to 3d mode
Fixed Duck Chess not allowing a first duck move when on Select and Click
Fixed Duck Chess not awarding a win in the rare event of a stalemate
Fixed 2 bishop and king vs king being considered a drawn position
Short term plans for improvements:
Review of Fischer, Kasparov and Karpov games
Adding engine hints into exhibition games
Showing captured piece count on the side of the board
Adding more variants like king of the hill and 3 check
