How do you like the method for entering Lion moves as it is used here? And would you consider it an improvement if the screen for the second leg appeared with the Lion already pre-selected, so that you would immediately see its final destinations highlighted, rather than having to click it again for that?
Yeah, I liked how it was before better. The dropdown menu of legal moves is a good addition, so long as it doesn't interfere with a player's ability to click and move as one would normally do. I could see myself using the dropdown menu to enter lion moves (chu shogi) in the future, even considering the time it would take to scroll through 100+ legal moves.
The same is true for me also. I think there was a tweak to the base code related to legal moves. When you mouse click your piece in the past a gray square came up. This does not occur anymore.
For some reason I'm not being allowed to move in any of my 6 current games in progress where it's my turn, as far as I can tell.
[edit: I've been able to enter moves manually, but still not by mouse clicking.]
For reasons unknown, the host went down for almost three hours today. I compensated interrupted games by three hours.
Once again, the site was offline, and I booted it back up. This time, it was down for nearly 14 hours, and I discounted that much from interrupted moves.
I left out a semicolon when I updated the timeleft.php file earlier. So I fixed that and changed the time it discounts for the latest interruption to 6 hours.
Currently I can only access my/(other people's) untimed games, whether it's my turn to move or not. Otherwise, nothing shows for timed games in progress, whether my move or not. Invitations that are timed do show, at least.
Must be early. Still can't access any active timed games
I found the site down this afternoon and booted it back up. Since the last move had been made almost four hours ago, I modified Game Courier to take off four hours from any move interrupted by this downtime.
I found the site down this morning, and when I booted it back up, the last log was over 18 hours ago. So, I modified Game Courier to take 19 hours off the time for any move interrupted by this downtime.
It looks like the site was down over 11 hours today. I have programmed Game Courier to give an extra 12 hours to anyone whose move was interrupted by this downtime.
The last Kibbitz comment was 438 days ago. When I got rid of the play subdomain and put everything on one main domain, I started using the same footers for all pages. It looks like I did not add Kibbitzing code to the main footer that replaced the play subdomain's footer. I'll get on that in a while.
It seems that posting kibbitz comments isn't available anymore?
I found a line of HTML that included "{$userid}" for inserting the value of the $userid variable, and I changed it to a PHP echo statement.
As a temporary solution for users facing this problem would be to just use multiple tabs. This way the inconvenience is out and least until an opponet makes a move :)!
The difference to to start from the way you enter the exact same link.
If I click my games on game courier I always find both active and challenges.
When I click confirm on a move during a game a window apears where I need to press "your logs" to come back to the same window as described above.
It seems to me that the conumdrum is in the way the userid gets paseed out of the difference you have pointed out Fergus :)!
This is happening to me now, too. I make a move in a game. Then, under the "Whats Next" section, I click the "Your Logs" as I have always done, and now I get {$userid} in the URL that it sends me to.
The second link is wrong. It contains the string "{$userid}" instead of the value of the $userid variable. From what page are you getting this link?
It looks like I'm logged in and logged out but it is not the case as I'm always loged in :)!
Here are the 2 cases. Why?

This hasn't happened to me. Keep track of the page you were on when this happened, and get back to me with this. Also, make sure the problem is not simply that it is not currently your turn in any game.

Hello!
There seems to be a bug which is a mild incovinience.
It seems to me that when clicking in the menu "Your games on game courier" you recieve the game finder of active and invitations. Each second time I see only invitations. It would be so cool if you took a look.
Thanks!

That is an improvement. I like how it assumes the move is complete after a non-capturing first step. I also like the "pass" button. Yes, a pre-selected lion would be an improvement.
