On the Inkblots game, I use Balls/Discs as the pieces but these look ugly when the board is very large.
I want to use instead some pieces that are simply painting the occupied cell that player's color.
I tried using Tiles but it never worked.
I never found a list of options for pieces in the Language Reference, rather they are spread out through all the examples.
On a similar note, I tried to get a third color for a neutral piece, but it always made the neutral piece the same color as either player 1 or 2. So I instead used a Queen, which also looks ugly on the large board. If somebody could help me define a third, neutral color, for the same piece types, it would be really helpful.
When I ask these questions, I always first go through the language reference manual. But it is not always easy for me to understand it, or find the relevant information. In this case, I don't think the information is present, but I might be wrong.
