mephisto's Issues

Mephisto down?

Hi, is Mephisto broken? Can't use it since today on chess.com (both chess.com and beta)

Castling issue

There is some interesting bug that goes in 2 ways - enemy castling is not tracked and extension thinks that move wasn't made. And move suggestion gives you move king in next cell instead of O-O or O-O-O

Improvements

I took it for myself to make some improvements to mephisto for Windows 10 (chrome, chess.com)

https://github.com/tomastraini/Mephisto-master

The improvements i did are:

  • Update Stockfish from the weaker web stockfish to desktop v15.1 via Python API
  • Add a book moves system
  • New option to search by movetime or depth
  • Solved promotion bug (table not updating after a promotion)
    I guess that other improvement would be to make the python API's stockfish usable in Linux and not simply a .exe

Doesn't work on chess.com anymore

It doesn't capture the moves on the board correctly. It seems that captures older moves of the game, but not the currently played ones.

Suggestion: Have Extension Highlight On The Chess Board

Instead of flipping back and forward with the extension, maybe have it so it displays or highlights the squares for which piece to move and where you move it. You should also have it be shown on the board you're playing on rather than referring to the extension pop-up over and over again.
