@H.G.: I would like to be able to play my variant 'Bull's eye' on 'GAME Courier'.
With the 'Play-test applet for chess variants' ( new one) I thought I could realize this. Maybe it works and I didn't understand it correctly. Anyway, you say:
This falls within the standard capabilities of the Interactive Diagram, so that it can be implemented without any programming. Just specify two versions of each piece, one for in the bull's eye, one for everywhere else. And then specify a morph board for each of those that makes them change into the version that belongs in the zone. The morph board for the 'eye pieces' can also be used to make the bull's eye inaccessible to them.
The ability to implement two options for each character (normal/bull's eye) I can only find in your description for 'Interactive diagrams'. In the 'Play-test applet for chess variants' I did not find this option - and only there seems to exist the ability to define the 'morph board'. To get from 'Interactive diagrams' to 'Play-test applet for chess variants', I have so far used the function 'Paste an existing diagram:'. This also works, but then I fail at the definition of the 'morph board'.
I've been witching at this point for days and can't get any further.
Have I got it all wrong, or could it be advantageous to harmonize 'Interactive diagrams' and 'Play-test applet for chess variants'?
