Pre-Move function and arrows on right click

Sort:

Dear community,

Has anybody else lost the ability to do pre-moves? As a bullet player it now costs me a lot of time not being able to do this.

Also when you click some arrows appear on the screen. is this some function that allows you do 'if Player A does this then Player B can make this move?

Any advice or links would be helpful.

Thank you.

Hi,

If you go to Settings (the cog on the bottom left of the screen) -> Live Settings -> Play (Second tab from the left), there is an option called 'Enable Premoves' that you can toggle on and off at the top of the screen. Make sure that's turned on and try again.

What you're describing with this (if Player A does this then Player B can make this move) unfortunately isn't enabled on Live Chess (although it is on Daily Chess!). It just isn't practical time-wise to enter conditional moves with a live clock ticking down.

Hope this helps!

I have a porblem, I enabled premoves but I cant premove because it draws arrows instead how can I make it so I can do both premove and draw arrows at the same time ?

You can't do both at the same time. It's either move or draw arrows.

you need to do premoves with the left button not right. just play them like normal moves. you can to up to ten which is useful when you have a definite check mate.
