Here’s something I feel would make things feel more smooth: if my opponent takes a piece and I’d like to take back, I want to remove my taken piece anf his to-be taken piece at the same time, and put the piece I use to recapture on that square.
Basically, I’ll be making two moves at the same time, without going through the intermediate step of them taking me.
Same could apply to taking their piece right after it moved.
That’s a pretty’s good and interesting idea that would make take-backs a lot smoother.
Yes, when playing blitz or towards the end of the game when time is low, it’s instinctive…and creates problem you don’t have time for.
I think this has been brought up before.
“Take backs” usually means undo to people, so I edited the title to “recapture”.
Yes we will support this in the future. It is something we will work out in a couple of months and then announce in a firmware update note.
This is a change that is easy in theory but requires a ton of testing to make sure we do not break something else, so it will be a bit before we release to the wild.
