The automation language for Game Courier is now more powerful than ever. The newly developed if, set, and verify commands can all make use of a Polish notation calculator for evaluating very complex expressions. The Polish notation calculator includes special functions for getting information that can be used in code for enforcing rules to games. It might be possible now to write code that enforces the rules of Chess, though what I've done so far focuses mainly on the easier task of checking whether a piece has moved as its powers enable it to. The harder part is checking for check and checkmate. I haven't worked out all the details yet, but what I have implemented may already be capable of this. But even if it is, I expect to write some more functions to make the process go faster and take up less code.
