Feature request: Chess problems

[SlimeDog]

I would like to be able to construct chess problems

• configure a board
• challenge a player to solve it
• then reset the board for the next player

Possible?

Do you mean like chess.com puzzles where you play against the computer and there is only one correct move? Or just different starting positions?

[SlimeDog]

Playing a specific chess.com puzzle would be interesting, but I would happily settle for something like

• set a starting position, saved as a board
• let someone play it against the computer (a command executed via a command-sign, for example)
• report the outcome in chat or as a banner (if it was mate in 3, for example, did the player win or lose?)
• reset the board (a command executed via a second command-sign, for example; or on a configured timer)

Storing game history and states is something I want to do eventually, but that's better as a separate issue.

I like this idea in general though.

Moved game save/evaluation feature requests to #15

Any movement on this issue?
