This is a very nice preset!

Any objections if I rename this page to just "Chu Shogi" and hide the other two Chu preset launch pages?  I don't think there is really a reason to keep the other pages, and the other presets themselves are always available if anyone wants them.  But someone just looking to start Chu on Game Courier should see this page and not be confused by the others which have nothing to recommend them.

@Greg Strong Sorry for the late response, but I just added a link the Alfaerie Style preset, so you are welcome to rename my page to 'Chu Shogi' and hide the other two pages with (non-rule enforcing) Chu Shogi presets.

Did you get my message?

This has been done. Thanks again for the excellent preset!

Your welcome. In case your wondering how I made the preset, I mostly copied code from the Tenjiku Shogi preset (which was based on the Suzumu Shogi preset) and modified it to suit the needs of Chu Shogi and the its sets. The hardest part was implementing the Lion trading rules. For those, I used a variable to check whether a Lion was captured or not, and then tested moves based on its value. For allowing a Kirin that had just captured a Lion to be taken, I simply used a flag to mark its spot and created an exception to allow it to be recaptured.

The preset has recently been changed in a way that makes it worse than it was before. Now, simply typing "pass" for the second leg of a move does not append to the first leg, nor does the newly added "pass" button work as it should. I liked how HGM handled it in his Mighty Lion Chess preset.

It still says "You may not move more than one piece per turn" when trying to pass the second step of a lion move.

Until Adam's preset is fixed, I don't see much of a choice but to use the non-enforcing preset. Puzzles me why an update would just make things worse.

I'll get to testing that bug right away.

From my testing, the bug you described doesn't seem to pop up in the other presets I made using similar code. But those presets included code for a piece called the Heavenly Tetrarch, which wasn't allowed to skip the second part of its igui move. This piece does not exist in Chu Shogi, so I removed that part of the code when making the preset.

[Edit] This bug is now fixed. The lines that told the code to exit the do loop early after passing the second part of a double move were placed too far in. In the other presets, they were in the correct spots, but I had forgotten to update their position after deleting the code preventing the Tetrarch from passing its igui move in the Chu Shogi preset.

I fixed the preset. The option to pass the second part of a double move is now working properly.

I'm having a problem with this preset where, when viewed from the second player's perspective, all the pieces but the kings are shown as black circles.

Okay, that's fixed.

thank you!

I can't access my game.

This has been fixed.

I made an Alfaerie set for Chu Shogi that makes use of Jeremy Good's pieces. I reversed the colors, so that dark pieces are used for Black and white pieces are used for White.

I am unable to move in the current Chu Shogi game.

Syntax Error on line 200

The function 'RCL' has not been defined. Its arguments are 12b

Now if I try to open the game it just says The chushogi-mnemonic set does not exist

That was me noticing an error in the set, rushing to fix it, and forgetting to changing the preset's default set before doing so.
