Fergus,

In my Janggi with Darren game below:

http://play.chessvariants.com/pbm/play.php?game=Janggi&log=j_carrillo_vii-cvgameroom-2016-213-106

my next move R c3-d3 is checkmate, and the preset identifies the move as checkmate.

However, on my 15th move, my General faced my opponent's General face-to-face without any intervening pieces, therefore by the Janggi rules, the most that I should be able to get is a draw even if I checkmate my opponent.

Would you like to review and correct the logic of the preset to account for this very specific Janggi situation?

Otherwise, instead of playing R c3-d3 I'll just type "drawn" to end the game.

I just believe this is a very good opportunity to update this draw logic.
