v2.4.172 - subtle but important changes

I've fixed a lot of bugs, but also added some interesting features:

  • when the move list context menu is open on a bookmark will show two different texts for the "Split" functionality based on if you press Shift or not
  • the bots page has an extra button to turn all time control filters on/off together
  • you can now drop an image over the inbox chat (not only the inbox input box) to paste it
  • local evaluation chart now appears in Studies, too, and takes into account "eval: ..." comments as well
  • PGN Editor supports starting comments (an obscure use of PGN notation where the comments appear in front of the move)
  • PGN Editor Merge will now sort the variations based on how many lines were merged there (so when you merge all your games, the first variation will be the one you played the most) - unless you press Shift when you click Merge

Next I want to focus on anti addiction features. I would like some ideas from you guys! So far I've got this:

  • LT cannot block people from playing games - it wouldn't work anyway, they would just disable the extension
  • but LT can warn and nag people that they have been tilting, that they played too many games, that they played too many games of a certain low quality time control or even low quality games, etc.
  • I am thinking of a "lives" system where you can set a number of games per day or a number of losses per day (finally that Nintendo cheat will come in handy ;-) )
  • I will centralize some other stuff like for example the No bullet theme, which is already present and hides all bullet and ultrabullet from the site
  • There are some more subtle ideas, like hiding the "New opponent" button, so you have to click extra to start a new game from the lobby.

Also, I am planning a real web site for LiChess Tools, not just the blog pages that are frightening new users into catatonia and I have to work on the new LiChess TV app.

As always, enjoy LiChess Tools, thanks for all the support and feedback and have fun!
