Welcome to Scratch Chess - Game of Kings! To start playing, please click the white piece you want to move, then click the target field. Forum: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/248984/ For bug reports please attach exported board data (the one before the black move took place). Simply click "Export", then look for the next-to-last board list entry and copy it to the clipboard (or export all entries to a file and copy the one entry from there). Alternatively you can also export he move list (click "Moves"). I focused on game experience and AI. Considering the speed limitations of Scratch it shouldn't be too bad (it calculates up to four moves in advance, depending on selected level). Your feedback is welcome in the comments section. Known issues: - Mobility evaluation should be weighted per piece type and game stage - Opening book is rudimentary - Only wins accidentally (if at all) at level "Easy" - Missing feature: PGN import / export (currently only customer format) - Missing feature: FEN import / export (currently only customer format) Fixed issues: - Evaluation functionality needs cleanup (currently cluttered code, with implicit dependencies) - Bug: Disappearing piece due to wrong en-passant application during checkmate check (thanks to Itharius for reporting this) - Bug: Wrong algebraic notation on H column (thanks to Itharius for reporting this) - Bug: King passive in endgame due to latest performance tuning - Feature: Performance tuning by evaluating position less frequently - Bug: Allows castling through checked fields - Feature: En-passant support - Feature: Move ordering via hash move (speedup) - Feature: Isolated pawn evaluation - Feature: Algebraic move list - Feature: Undo move - Feature: Import/export board data - Bug: Queen moves too early - Bug: Cannot move h2h4 - Feature: Opening book initial implementation - Feature: Provide several difficulty levels - Bug: Does not detect draws on repetitive positions - Bug: Black move might lead to black king being checked - Bug: Missing double pawn evaluation - Bug: Thinks one side's check can be compensated by other side's check - Bug: Does not consider check on castling - Bug: Does not consider draw in move evaluation - Bug: Applies pawn promotion too late - Bug: Target piece not restored after invalid white move when checked
Have fun!
