Love the Chess MRE but it has two bugs...

Opened this issue · 0 comments

I have been using the Chess MRE for a few weeks now for my chess tournaments in AltspaceVR. I have two problems I'm facing and I would love to collaborate with someone to come up solutions:

  1. I have to reset the board for the players. This is not a huge deal breaker, but it limits my ability to play games during the tournament, as I must be interrupted to reset the boards for new matches. I reset by going into the world editor, then checking and unchecking the 'playing' checkbox. Is there another way the players can reset boards? If not, I would love to collaborate with someone to add a reset trigger on, or probably better under the board itself?

  2. The pawns do not promote. This has resulted in some heavy disagreements between chess players trying to rise on the leaderboard. Perhaps I can work with someone to enable a promotion selection when the pawn reaches the opposite side of the board? Note: All players have said they would be fine if the pawn automatically became a queen if the choice of promotion pieces is a challenge.
