Thema: Prearranged positions

Verändert von Rex Nihilo (7. Dezember 2006, 23:40:33)

A feature I would like to see implemented would be the ability to start a game from a predetermined position. Practical uses of this would include:

1. Thematic tournements (for chess and go varients)
2. Backgammon "propositions" -- which have fallen out of favor with the advent of the bots, but can can still be used for instructional purposes.
3. Instructional aids for people teaching the game to someone.

The interface is there for Espionage and Screen Chess, and I think would be very well received.

Any other opinions on this?

Fencer: Very nice! Is this just for chess, or all games? If it is for gammon games as well (for say, a proposition - no one has programmed a bot to play Crowded), will we be able to put in any cube adjustments ahead of time, or will we have to keep our own bookkeeping for that?
