From 8390862a73c2f35af1fbe0254507205bc4c1de0e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Wagner Date: Sun, 23 Nov 2025 15:37:05 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] fix: correct captured piece extraction from Board.movePiece() return value MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Fixes critical bug where moves with captures would crash the game. Root Cause: - Board.movePiece() returns an object: { captured: pieceOrNull } - GameController.executeMove() was treating the return value as the piece itself - This caused move.captured to be { captured: piece } instead of piece - When GameState.recordMove() tried to access move.captured.color, it was undefined - Error: "TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'this.capturedPieces[move.captured.color].push')" The Fix: Extract the captured piece from the return object: const moveResult = this.board.movePiece(fromRow, fromCol, toRow, toCol); captured = moveResult.captured; This ensures move.captured is the actual Piece object (or null), not wrapped in an object. Impact: - Moves with captures now work correctly - Captured pieces are properly tracked in game state - UI can now display captured pieces - Game flow works end-to-end Testing: - All 124 unit tests passing ✅ - Captures properly recorded in capturedPieces arrays - No regression in non-capture moves 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude --- js/controllers/GameController.js | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/js/controllers/GameController.js b/js/controllers/GameController.js index 3a76727..3379bc3 100644 --- a/js/controllers/GameController.js +++ b/js/controllers/GameController.js @@ -105,7 +105,8 @@ export class GameController { captured = SpecialMoves.executeEnPassant(this.board, piece, toRow, toCol); } else { // Normal move - captured = this.board.movePiece(fromRow, fromCol, toRow, toCol); + const moveResult = this.board.movePiece(fromRow, fromCol, toRow, toCol); + captured = moveResult.captured; // Check for promotion if (specialMoveType === 'promotion' || (piece.type === 'pawn' && piece.canPromote())) {
