Bug/UI Suggestion [ ]: Game Clocks reset to move 1's times after last attempted move

Sort:

As someone who looses on time a lot, I've noticed recently that after making the last move, if time has expired, the clocks get reset to move 1 times. It may have always behaved this way, but I find it confusing that the final position clocks don't represent the final posiition times.

For example:



Clarification Edit:
The time should look so:




Here is an animated gif showing setting through the last moves. Rb2 was made after time has expired.

The Fix:
Don't reset the times to the times after move 1 until move 1 is the active position.
If the attempted last move is after time has expired, leave the clocks at the last move times.

I don't understand

Can't you just know the time by clicking on the last move again? CMIIW

Yes, but why present erroneous times and I'd have to change the board view. Thus the bug.

The times after move 1 should only display when move 1 is the active move.

My definition of a bug is "If what's presented is wrong, it's a bug."

Already done.

My procedure is to post to the Beta forum and then report a bug via Report A Bug where the message body contains a link to the forum post.
