Nice that it detects valid moves, But it doesn't know about checkmate? https://chess.maxmcd.com/r1b1kRnr/p1ppB2p/n2P2p1/8/7P/1p6/PPP2PP1/RN2KBN1_b_Q_-_5_17/ ht

Should say checkmate?
- michaelmior 2y agoIt looks like the pieces are no longer movable so maybe checkmate is detected but just not correctly displayed?
- jtriangle 2y agoIt also doesn't allow en passant
- skribanto 2y agoe4 d5 e5 f5 exf6 This simple en passant works
- deadbabe 2y agoWow, I’ve never even heard of en passant. These kind of niche obscure rules seem antithetical to the elegant nature of chess.
- bluedevil2k 2y agoThis and castling strike me as the kind of rules where a King like Henry VIII was losing and decided to castle for the first time ever and his opponent was too scared to say anything to stop it.
- zelphirkalt 2y agoOn one hand this kind of rules seem like tacked on, artificial, but on the other hand en passant has been introduced for a good reason and chess would be quite dull without it.
- daniel_levine 2y agoFork it!
- tantalor 2y agoPatches welcome
- jameshart 2y agoIf checkmates actually said ‘checkmate’ on them you’d be able to find them once the Google bot has indexed the whole site. Ideally every page needs to include a string summarizing every preceding board state leading up to it, so you can search for a current board state plus ‘checkmate white’ to find every possible way to win from a given board state. Then all that remains to turn Google into the ultimate chess oracle is to persuade your opponent to make all the moves you found.
