Chessnut Move: control how fast moves reach your board. Four seconds was not enough for the pieces to finish a move — castling especially, where two pieces move and one has to thread past the other. • New pace control: send moves to your Chessnut board no faster than one every 10 seconds. Adjustable from 5 to 30, or switch it off. It sits in the follow panel and in Chessnut Boards, whether or not a board is connected. • Fast games no longer outrun the pieces. Moves arriving quicker than your pace are queued and played out in order, in full — so when players blitz out the end of a game you can watch it finish on the board instead of losing it. • Leaving a game lets the queued moves finish rather than sweeping the pieces mid-game. Stop still stops immediately, and Skip to live jumps the board to the current position whenever you want it. • The replay speed slider now reaches 30 seconds per move and shares the same setting. • The pace you choose is remembered.
