Feature request: Conditional premoves • page 1/1 • Lichess Feedback • lichess.org

Here's a feature request: Allow a kind of conditional premove, in this way:

I should be able to click on the opponent's piece, move it, and then move mine. This way, I can conditionally premove my pieces only if the opponent moves in the way that I specified.

This will make things easier in that I can say "if the opponent plays the expected move and retakes, play X, but if they don't, cancel, because I want to assess what's going on first".

Of course, this can be extended to multiple moves, chess.com-style.

Stop there, you're not Hikaru. Many people did it for you and Lichess is very less likely to add this feature: https://lichess.org/forum/search?text=multiple+premoves

Conditional premoves already exist in correspondence games. Just play a variation in engineless analysis board and it's a conditional premove.

You're misunderstanding my request, but I don't appreciate the snark, so I won't bother posting more.
