Better Chess

This mods tries to fix the chess board located in the airport. You will not need to move your pieces a few units to the side to perfectly align them on the grid, BetterChess will do that for you!

Note

BetterChess also has MovableChessboard as a soft dependency. Its recommended to install it in case you (or some mod) at any point decide to move chessboard around. If not installed, chess pieces and snapping will be tied to the initial position of the chessboard.

Features

• Chess piece alignment to the chessboard grid
• Only allow snapping within the chessboard (with some offset)
• Reset chess position button
• Reset to custom positions
• Add compitability with MovableChessboard mod
• Debug visualisation of snap positions and area, accessible with a press of a button

Yet to be implemented

• Better way to handle chess piece movement (external board, etc.)
• Potentially add chess.com/lichess.org API to move pieces with the game on website
