End of Lines of Action - Quentin Cohen-Solal - 09-16-2020
There is a bug in Lines of Action: the game does not end when the opponent's move makes our pieces self-connected.
In addition, the case where both players see their pieces self-connected simultaneously does not seem to be addressed. The standard rule is a draw (a variant is a win for the mover).

Hi Quentin,
Oh yeah, of course that's possible. Thank you!
We take in account only the group of the mover at the end of the turn in the description, I will check for the two players for the next release.

Hi,
There is still a problem with Lines of Action. In the event that both players make a simultaneous connection, the first player always wins. However, the standard rule is a draw (and a common variation is the player who made the move which wins).

Hi Quentin,
I was not aware of that rule. But yeah that's right ;)
So I make that modification for the next release.
I am going to make an option to have the two possibilities.

Eric
