Often an opponent wont resign even when they're stuck in a forced checkmate sequence and it's abundently clear and simple what the winning sequence is to both players.
It's timeconsuming and annoying to keep going back to the same game over many days because there is no intelectual challenge, and the opponent is usually doing it out of mallace or oppurtunistically hoping to claim a win on time.
A premove feature that isn't dependent on knowing what irrelevant move the opponent is going to make would really help in dealing with these players.
For example in the racing kings game linked below, what is a simple matter of moving the king straight up 7 squares is made imposibly difficult to implement in conditional premoves by the number of options the opponent has to play.
As an experiment I created the shortest length of code possible to see what it would look like to cover all basis:

143 conditonal premoves. As opposed to just 7 automatic premoves that would be necessary.
This is just one example where automatic premoves would help considerably, there are many times I'd like to create just one premove to have ready being sure in what I want to do, but dont even bother knowing that it would be way too timeconsuming going through all the boxes that the opponent might move their peices in order to create a conditional premove.
If it's possible please could you implement automatic premoves in corrispondance games.
I know there are many who would much appreciat it,
Thanks for reading,
