I report here again the bug which is on the GC Preset of Very Heavy Chess. We found it on this log: https://www.chessvariants.com/play/pbm/play.php?game=Very+Heavy+Chess&log=panther-timurthelenk-2021-339-162 We had an absurd "check" which could be removed by another absurd move.

I think I know where the bug comes from in the Very Heavy Chess preset.

The "Pre-Game" block doesn't have the right squares, it has been cut-and-paste from Heavy Chess.

Instead of

setflag b2 b9 i2 i9 f2 f9; set k f9; set K f2; set ep false; set bpr 8; set wpr 3; set wcastle d2 e2 g2 h2; set bcastle d9 e9 g9 h9;

it should be:

setflag c2 c9 j2 j9 g2 g9; set k g9; set K g2; set ep false; set bpr 8; set wpr 3; set wcastle e2 f2 h2 i2; set bcastle e9 f9 h9 i9;

Could you make the correction?

Also the "Rules URL" is wrong, pointing to Heavy Chess instead of Very Heavy Chess.

Thanks you to fix it.
