[Scidvspc-users] Possible bug: new variation for existing move

[Ralph M. <ral...@ou...>]

Hi Steve,

 

in the x64 version of 4.13 I can consistently reproduce the following:

 

1.       Make sure you have a game with a few moves already played.

2.       Click on any move in the PGN window except for the last one.

3.       Using your mouse, make the next move in the game, i.e. move the
piece to be moved to where the next move says it should go.

4.       Observe that a new variation has been added.

 

Maybe this is intended behaviour but it seems unintuitive because I don’t
expect a new variation to be added when the move already exists in the game
record. This catches me all the time and just feels like a bug.

 

I’ve uploaded a short video that shows the problem, in case my description
is confusing: http://youtu.be/YzLnNBYRiBE

 

Cheers,

Ralph
