Antoine, there is a bug in the ZRF. Pawns can´t capture.

Thanks, Roberto. It's corrected.

Hi Antoine

I wish to thank you to implement Slide Chess.

One problem: Each cage begins on the last player row, you must switch
cages in the setup (this is to avoid direct attacks to the enemy tower)

Thanks, João. It's corrected.

Bug corrections:
Check by Black through a Cage move is disallowed.
Pawn Promotion through a Cage move to the 2nd or 7th row is disallowed.

The 1st point (check using a cage insertion) is correct.

However, the 2nd point may happen. A pawn inside a cage can be promoted by
an insertion. Check the comments in the game webpage.

Once again, thanks for your work on the ZRF :-)

Oops. I meant: promotion through Cage rotation is now disallowed.
