Let be a piece with two possible kinds of moves:
* move-type First ,by which a player must complete a series of moves (as in Checkers when capturing),and
*move-type Second ,by which he may stop moving whenever he wants to.
As pass-partial can take one value only (here "false"), set once and for all throughout a ZRF, how could one work around this "conflict of interests" ?
A fleeting (and impractical,no doubt) thought:
define a (null-)move of move-type Second where a special piece on some dedicated location could have an attribute that might be changed by clicking on it (since the "pass-turn" icon usually allowing this would be inoperant here) ,to signify that the opponent can take over.
Please stop sniggering , and just tell me if that could work ;>)
Thanks for any help. |

Indeed, you just need a "stop button"
which you click to stop in the second type of
move sequences (use add-copy-partial, so
that the player just has to click the button
instead of actually dragging a piece there.)
I guess that should work.
(I think I have used such stop-buttons
myself, but cannot remember in which games).

...That should read
"add-copy" of course, not "add-copy-partial". |
