Yesterday 10/06/21 I was playing a bot and I castles and the game duplicated my rook, I was able to move all 3 but by the 3rd one the bot just stopped working. I refreshed the site and now I can’t even click challenge, this only is happening on my computer account if I’m logged out it doesn’t happen and it does not happen on my phone. Please someone help me.

If you're on the app, it needs to be installed on external storage and not an SD card for the bots to work.

If it doesn't work immediately, give it a few seconds and try again.

Do you have any plug-ins/add-ons that might be interfering? I know I have occasionally had an issue and staff are aware of it occasionally happens.

I also have that issue, it lets me play the chess board just doesn't appear. no plug-ins

I also have the problem of no boards playing bots. No plug-ins, and I tried it on two different computers, desktop and laptop, with different browsers (firefox and edge). This only started happening today. Press the play button, no board appears.

Lichess to the rescue, and not for the first time.

Martin_Stahl

Those that had the issue of no board showing should be fixed.
