Puzzle update: UI bug

Sort:
MasterMatthew52

This seems to happen randomly and I can't find any particular pattern in when it occurs, but after solving a lot of puzzles in a row, it becomes more and more frequent until you restart the app.

OS version: Android 13

Device: Samsung Galaxy s21

App version: 4.5.18 (beta tester)


In this first screenshot notice the black knight is obviously not centered on the square. (Took this screenshot after the computer made the next move, but it was like this the second I let go of the black knight)

Now you might look at this and think that's all, but the real bug is this: The knight isn't on that square!

Refer to the following screenshot showing the legal knight moves. The knight is d3 but it is showing the knight on f3.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help. I know how annoying it is to test mobile bugs happy

I think you mean f3 not c3.. But still, does look like a bug...

Yes, thank you. I changed it. Should've payed more attention grin

I let the devs know about this topic and these instances.

Do you have Developer settings enabled on your device by chance?

Yes, I do

Do you have Developer Options > Animator Duration Scale > Animation Off ?

If you do, there's a fix coming out soon for that.

I have it set to 1x

Martin_Stahl

It's possible the fix will work on that when it comes out.

MasterMatthew52

I'll keep an eye out for it. Would it be versiom 4.5.19?

Martin_Stahl

I assume the next released version

MasterMatthew52

The latest update did not fix the problem.

Martin_Stahl

This particular fix hasn't been rolled out yet.

I see the knight on the right square. And this is by far the easiest 2500+ rated puzzle I ever saw, the moves were obvious to me (and I'm not one of those who say that on every puzzle!)
