It looks right if the rank label 0 is replaced with something else Another game with this problem is Rococo Now that Daniel brought this problem up, I should also note that presets with a Max Columns value of 0 don't display, only showing the following text. When cols is zero, you don't have a board. Exiting before it tries to divide by zero. An example is my old Hook Shogi preset and other old presets, for which I did because I was younger and less experienced. Thankfully, this is very easy to fix. Throw in a clause in the script that forces the Max Columns value to be 1 if the field is evaluated to be 0. Pseudocode, assumes val("Max Columns") has been pre-validated to let only integers through. if (val("Max Columns") == 0) { cols = 1; } // Set Max Columns to 1 to prevent dividing by 0 or a negative number else cols = Math.abs(val("Max Columns")); // Valid value (take absolute value to ensure proper division)
