Wow, it must be difficult for a developer not to have a working computer at home during these times ! Keep up ! Best,

This is indeed a strange behavior, and I agree that this is a bug with high priority. Unfortunately I don't have a working computer, and in these difficult Corona times I cannot buy hardware. So I will work on this problem later.

When a ChessBase database cbh file is opened in Scidb, some games are stripped from their annotations, some aren't

Chameleon operator

New modifier 'c*' has been introduced, which means: move like the captured piece, in this case no piece designator is needed for move description, because the star is a replacement for the movement of the captured piece. Now it is easier to define the chameleon behavior. This is the old description of Chameleon in Ultima: @:XK:=c{K}K @:XC:=(!c{C}R-sjj{K}R)0* @:XP:=(!c{P}W-jjW)0* @:XR:={c{W}W-tW}-[(c{L}R)0]-mR--:XC:--:XP: @:XB:={c{W}F-tF}-[(c{L}B)0]-mB--:XC: X=:XK::XR::XB: #X=c{I}K The new description...

Ko Shogi has very complex rules, especially the promotion rules are very complex, and I need to invent some more board rules: royal{PieceSet} capture(N) This means that only N of the royal piece types have to be captured to win the game. Per default all royal pieces have to be captured to win the game. Note that this attribute is useful only if also attribute "expose" will be applied. Example: royal{KM}=expose,capture(1) As soon as one of the pieces K or M will be captured, the game is won. promotion...
