Exactly, capturing a promoted piece en passant is worth only 1 point, as if it were a pawn

Sometimes, in today’s WoF tournament, Blue is automatically moved for without the player doing anything. Example:

I wanted to play Exl10, but instead the server didn’t wait for me and did not fulfill my wishes by playing 1.b Exm13?. I still was victorious, but that move could have sent me off course!
No one has looked into this bug for a month? I have an explanation: if the page is laggy, and your move comes right after a zombie's move, the server auto-moves for you on your first move, even if your move is one of the worst moves (aka it plays random moves). This bug is really annoying.
Now I'm even angrier.

The server moved my camel-rider "without permission." I planned to open with a normal sergeant move. It's been happening for a year -- when is the staff going to address this bug?
That bug only happens in variants where the starting player is the r̶e̶d̶ bot

Also, the old link (51430017) shows the "parsePGN" error reported many years ago.
Notation bug
I played a 4-player chess game against @zetahh, @7AlexisB4 and @Zakiisback.
You can see a bug with the notation. 5...Nxh13 should be notated as Njxh13, because there was an option to capture the queen with 2 different knights. 12...Nh11 should be N12h11. 14...Rj14 should be Rkj14. 21...Nf10 should be Nhf10. When a player checkmates multiple players, then it should be notated with # rather than +#, except in Play for Mate games. The 1st checkmate should be #, 2nd should be +# and 3rd should be ++#. Improve the notation.
# means that the player either completed the checkmate net without attacking the king or captured the king or checkmated by claiming the hill #74862061

1. Theese are extremley low-priority bugs compared to numerous other ones that variant creators are literally spamming to be fixed.
2. There are not even bugs. 4PC notation was desinged long ago and i don't think they plan to change it, cosidering reason 1 of why this should be kept alone.

This is a high-priority bug, according to FIDE. Otherwise, different moves would be notated the same way.
They are in full notation in the PGN4
When playing on a mobile browser, there's no option to rotate the board in variants with the 4PC scheme.
After repositioning the duck, it became resistant to checking and the stalemated player did not lose, see #74974106

Notation was invented as an easier way to re-create games. Who re-creates 4PC games? Nobody. Question solved. It's a low-priority bug. (That isn't even a bug)
so it still thinks it is a pawn
