 I'm particularly interested in things you can do in FEN4 but not the normal editor.

press the load button after editing the fen


freaky board sizes

 

honestly it's just easier to use transparent bricks


different lives

turn on n-check in the normal editor before you mess with this

you can also use this feature to go over the 50-check limit like in Thermopylae ;D


or you can make this weird thing where you can move during setup period like in ashtandrez

turn on setup chess in the normal editor before you do this

play ashtandrez and youll know what its like

yk Box of Combat made use of this feature? https://variants.world/posts/786


spell stuff

turn on spell chess in the normal editor before you mess with this

this is the default:

change 0x2 or 0x5 to however many spells you want for each player, like freeze_0x10 or jump_0x123


get rid of spells

Explosive Magic made use of this feature


do freaky stuff with spells >;D

tbh im pretty sure they used this in a variant but im too lazy to check
