⚙️ Conditional "If ... then" Moves

The Conditional "If ... then" moves feature allows Full Members to enter up to five moves in advance, anticipating their opponent’s replies and speeding up gameplay in predictable scenarios.

Why Use Conditional Moves?

• Faster Openings: Enter opening sequences in advance to reach familiar positions quickly.
• Forced Sequences: Save time by pre-playing lines where your opponent has only one or a few reasonable replies.
• Holiday Backup: Set moves before travel to prevent delays or claims on time if your return is late.
• Extra Security: Keeps your games active even if you’re away unexpectedly.

How It Works

Conditional moves can be set up from the My Stuff → My Moves page. Simply enter your planned sequence, and ChessWorld will automatically play them if your opponent responds as expected.
