personmanthing 1 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 So I noticed Radomus set his chess board up wrong LOL, the king and queen are switched for black. Link to post Share on other sites
ShatteredSkys 1 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 lol wow I didn't even realize that Link to post Share on other sites
TheBackwardsLegsMan 0 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I didn't notice either, seeing as the extent of my chess knowledge was where each piece can move. Quite the grand master. Link to post Share on other sites
mkrosar 0 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 lol despite the slight error he still kicked my ass a few times! Link to post Share on other sites
Ojama Yellow 759 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Radomus, you suck. A lot. Link to post Share on other sites
K_H 7 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 you do realize that they're switched on White's side, too? [EDIT]:NVM, i wasn't seeing clearly. white's side is correct. [EDIT2]: heh. i just noticed that the Pawns are Pawniards, the Bishops are Bisharps, and the Kings and Queens are Nidokings and Nidoqueens, respectively. the pieces have names similar to the pokemon that they are. nice touch, Ame!

Administrators Amethyst 2466 Posted April 22, 2014 Administrators Share Posted April 22, 2014 Phew, I thought someone had noticed the actual error. Link to post Share on other sites
Lost Lore 12 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 If it's not one thing with Radomus, it's another, I swear... Considering my knowledge of chess is negligible at best, I hadn't noticed either, I must confess. Phew, I thought someone had noticed the actual error. You mean the fact that he gives you Calm Mind still instead of Trick Room like he's supposed to? Unless you beat him on the first try/decline because you aren't ready yet?

Vinny 27 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 What are the rooks supposed to be anyway? I can't figure it... Link to post Share on other sites
K_H 7 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 i don't know either. however, the knights are Escaveliers Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest 38 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 They look like liepard. Link to post Share on other sites
K_H 7 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 yeah, they kind of look like liepards Link to post Share on other sites
Lost Lore 12 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 ...I thought the rooks were Golett? Or Golurk? Kinda hard to tell... Link to post Share on other sites
K_H 7 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 they look more like Golurk than Liepard. it'd make more sense for them to be Golurks, too. Link to post Share on other sites
Veterans Azeria 390 Posted April 22, 2014 Veterans Share Posted April 22, 2014 they look more like Golurk than Liepard. it'd make more sense for them to be Golurks, too. Golurk does look like a rook but then again he could also be a knight cause of his sheer power Link to post Share on other sites
K_H 7 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 we've already said that the Knights are Escaveliers, @Azery. Link to post Share on other sites
Vinny 27 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Phew, I thought someone had noticed the actual error. I hope you're talking about the fact that the white pieces are facing the player, and not the black pieces... scrub Link to post Share on other sites

Administrators Amethyst 2466 Posted April 23, 2014 Administrators Share Posted April 23, 2014 Not that. Just assume they're double-facing. Not the TM thing either. That was easily fixed. The "actual error" is something chess-related that I'm dumb with and haven't worked out a solution to. Rooks are Golurks. Unfortunately the Golurk sprite I had to work from was kind of shrimpy. Looks more like a Golett to be honest. Golett was even shrimpier. Link to post Share on other sites

Side note: I've turned my PC sideway and upside down, but i still can't see a Golurk there. Guess my eyes are bad. Link to post Share on other sites
Global Mods Simon 38 Posted April 23, 2014 Global Mods Share Posted April 23, 2014 e.e I thought it was Golett this whole time.. :c EDIT: ._. Double post, can someone get rid of it. EDIT 2: Unless someone got rid of it, i see no double post, so whatever - Vinny Link to post Share on other sites

Flux 30 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Is the real problem the fact that it was impossible to move the bishops diagonally backwards from certain angles? I don't remember which way it was, but I do remember being particularly annoyed at this. Link to post Share on other sites
Administrators Amethyst 2466 Posted April 24, 2014 Administrators Share Posted April 24, 2014 That's more of a control issue than anything. The error is in the 4th chess puzzle. I over looked something when I first designed it, fixed it for beta which created a different problem, and fixed that different problem on release which happened to take it back to the way it was the in first place. The bishop at H...5? from the player's side. It exists to pin the knight to the king currently since the difficulty of this challenge was supposed to come from working around both defending your king and attacking his at the same time I failed to account for the fact, however, that that bishop can slide up to G6 to protect the king in what was intended as the proper checkmate solution I don't know if there's a way for me to revise this without redoing a significant part of the puzzle (and trust me, the coding behind these chess games is NOT robust so that's going to be difficult) or without dropping that part of the intended puzzle altogether.

I just cleared Radomus's gym last night, and I noticed that, too. When I completed the puzzle, I just assumed that the player had to plan multiple turns in advance. Upon watching earlier playthroughs, I noticed that the aforementioned bishop was a rook instead. (Also, that bishop doesn't do a great job of pinning the knight to the king, since the pawn at G2 does a good job of walling it.) Link to post Share on other sites
