example usage
hawk movement in musketeer chess
can you make it so that [@] makes it so that the symbol behind the [@] has got corners to indicate a capture?
like thi5
shift+num = !"#$%&'()
also couldn't you've stored the borders in |@·~€¬/?= , instead of 123456789 , so that the numbers are reserved for time
i can do @
it was pretty tricky to do it cuz its a monospace font
but [piece][space][@][space][space] should do it
correction: 3 spaces, not 2
all pieces currently in font
example usage of @
is there a duck piece
@fdhfxgdgvkdf you could've possibly kerned [piece]+[@]
whoops pressed submit by accident
ya but then id have to kern every piece with it
and like that i don't have to do that
ill add duck
Wow, this is really cool!
