Hi,

I have been playing chess for a while and I'm familiar with its rules. Last 2 games I played, I couldn't castle when I should've been able to, I even checked the rules again to see if I violated any of them which wasn't the case.

Here are the links of the 2 games, you can try for yourself to castle in move 20, and move 13. Please help.

If you're using click-move then you have to click the king and then the destination square to castle. Clicking the king and then the rook now only selects the rook on standard chess

that worked thank you. but this is new, I used to have a circle on the rook when I was able to castle, and I used to be able to klick the king and then the rook. is that a new update ?
