@ Fergus:

This relates only to my previous post (re: your Omega Chess preset) in that besides the en passant issue with triple stepping pawns I mentioned, I am having trouble with castling enforcement, in my 12x12 Brawl Chess rules enforced preset, too. In Brawl Chess a K castles by it moving 3 steps sideways left or right, and the settings file/preset linked to below gives me an error message when I try to castle in the Move Mode (using the include capablanca file gets an immediately fatal error for me, if I do so instead of using chess2 include file).

Not sure if I'm omitting to do something short and simple, or if I need to add a whole bunch of code, if that will work either (it may be preferable to use the Play-Test Applet for me to generate rules enforcement sooner or later, instead, except RNF and BNW piece types are not in the Applet's piece-table currently, and I'm not sure there are 2 suitable substitute figurines available that are currently in the table, if I were to add Betza code to use them, within any interactive diagram I may make). The Brawl Chess enforced preset uses the Sac Chess piece set that is also used for Jean-Louis' Very Heavy Chess invention's preset that I modified:
