Title: Playing the Bot
Post by jabriol on Mar 16^th, 2010, 2:56pm

Hello,

I am new, and played the lowest level Bot. But even though I won I have a few questions. Maybe I misunderstood the rules. For example. I thought I could push a rabbit back with a stronger opposing piece. I've tried this, but the Bot wouldn't allow it.

Am I doing something wrong.

As long as the stronger piece itself isn't frozen, the move should be possible.

That What I thought. I guess there is a bug with the ladder bot.

It seem that moves that are possible are sometimes frozen. I never had an issue with the version I got from smart games.

Ok thanks..

I don't think there's any bug in the gameroom (bugs in the bots wouldn't affect your ability to make your moves).

Either the piece is frozen or you're making the move in a wrong way. To push you have to put your mouse over the opposing rabbit first and move it, and only then move your own piece.
