HG, There are four areas where pieces get randomized. And they work in the diagram. The code you had given me yesterday only has 3.

HG, When I try nothing gets shuffled!

I had copied the code you've obtained in the preset. Isn't that supposed to work?

I don't understand what you mean by the fact that the diagram uses different pieces ID than the preset. I thought we had passed that. Maybe take another look and tell me what is there do be done: https://www.chessvariants.com/play/pbm/play.php?game=Grand+Apothecary+Chess+3&settings=Applet Thanks for your help!

I have made the modification but the shuffling algorithm still seems to get ignored. You have said earlier that the names of the pieces are different. I don't understand that. May you be a bit more specific?

@HG, I'm not sure what is going on then. Maybe clearing my cache could help? Or the fact I use microsoft edge is a problem? But it seems it is not a preset problem.

Oh, on Android I get correct results too! I'll just switch to that!

Now there is another problem. Once an invite is passed it cannot be accepted. If someone tries to accept the invitation (we have tried only personal) it gets an error that says the opponent won. Any idea?

Agreed!

Fergus, Are you here?

Good luck with the reading, Fergus. The trouble is that when I invite someone on any Grand Apothecary chess games, and that person accepts, the person in question receives a message that I won. So we can't play. Here are the presets in question:

At the second move of a game of Apothecary Chess Alert the pieces are not shown properly. Any idea why?

It does not seem to be that as in play mode it works ok, HG. Also trouble begins with ply 2 which is quite weird!


Aurelian Florea wrote on Fri, Nov 26, 2021 07:17 AM UTC in reply to H. G. Muller from Thu Nov 25 01:01 PM:

@HG, I don't see the problem. To me it seems that this preset should work like the other 2!


Aurelian Florea wrote on Sat, Nov 27, 2021 08:06 AM UTC in reply to H. G. Muller from Fri Nov 26 01:41 PM:

@HG The problem is that the piece pictures are not properly displayed. But I cannot see any bug as the end of the pregame section is the same to my two other presets that work fine. This is what I meant

@Daniel Do you see the same problem ?


Aurelian Florea wrote on Sun, Nov 28, 2021 12:12 AM UTC in reply to Aurelian Florea from Sat Nov 27 08:06 AM:

@HG, Have you had time to take a look at my preset?


Aurelian Florea wrote on Sun, Nov 28, 2021 09:27 AM UTC in reply to H. G. Muller from 07:54 AM:

Ok, thanks HG! Fergus if you can help?

@Fergus, Thanks for taking the time!

In the following preset:

https://www.chessvariants.com/play/pbm/play.php?game=Grand+Apothecary+Chess+1&settings=Applet

the pictures are not shown properly.when playing in online mode. In the local play mode things are fine.

In two other very similar presets:

https://www.chessvariants.com/play/pbm/play.php?game=Grand+Apothecary+Chess+2&settings=Applet https://www.chessvariants.com/play/pbm/play.php?game=Grand+Apothecary+Chess+3&settings=Applet

things work properly. Nor I or HG could figure it out. Maybe you can! I don't know how to reproduce it besides looking at the proper preset.
