Let's see.  This is for that Chess960 game where the kings start on g1/g8?  Yeah, castling is kind of odd in that situation.

You can "move" your king "onto" your castling rook to castle.  That is, move your king to h8, where you currently have a Rook.  That should instead leave your king where it is and jump the rook to f8.

*Note: Moving the king onto the castling rook should always work where castling is allowed.
