Re: Weird behavior

[Kooothor]

Hello again and thanks for trying to help me :)

I think I found the problem. As you told me, one needs to input Nxd5
and not nxd5. OK. But guess what, if earlier you move a piece with nc3
instead of Nc3 it will make an error on the Nxd5 later in the game.
But there is no errors on the nc3 move !!!

So in order to reproduce the bug, you must do :

manual
d4
c6
nc3 <---- culprit that will mess things up later (but shows no error)
d5
Nxd5

I'm quite happy to finally solve this (because I hate using outdated
versions :p). I hope this bug can be fixed :)

Thanks again,
Regards,
~ktr
