Take back move feature request.

[Curious2021]

Lichess allows you to “take back” a move during the game if it’s allowed in settings. Pychess lacks this feature.

No. See https://lichess.org/forum/general-chess-discussion/takeback-ettiquette#4

It can be useful in Casual games. Reopened.

Hello all.

After recently having a friend slip up in a casual game on his phone after 20 minutes, leading complete swing. I want to propose that it would be good to have a takeback mechanism - such as that of Lichess - for casual games only.

Much like Lichess I suggest the opponent would have to approve / decline said takeback request. And only a maxium of last 2 moves (1 for black 1 for white) would be possible at any given time.

Would like to know everyones thoughts on this, and if it's possible.

Thank you.

Since this is a fork of chessground shouldn't "take back" already exist? What am I missing?

This hasn't been worked on for 4 years?
