Macros • page 1/1 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

Nobody ever asked this before, so I'm asking it

Is using macros allowed, such as a keybind set to move a piece on e2 to e4, allowed?

Also, is using your keyboard to set each key to a certain square, so that when you press the key your mouse moves to that square allowed.

I'm only saying this because i want to be slightly faster in bullet lol

That already exists. It's called the keyboard extension, which allows you to play moves very quickly. Many players consider it to be cheating, but Lichess is fine with it. We'll see though, as the hate against KB is starting to grow more.

erm aiden he said thanks after he received an answer, he said that before the answer was given and I understand his annoyance, he was given a dislike and no answer, and then he received an answer. This is isn't the person who was crying for 25 minutes after they got called out for being a bit shady and called out for a lame joke.
