Miniature wishlist

We called it a roadmap, but it is more frank to just say wishlist.

If the feature you have in mind is missing you can add it to the Proposals below. If you want to work on a feature [[Miniature#Contact_us|contact us] and we will do our best to help you.

  • Play games online (this milestone will be reached with miniature-0.2)
    • Currently under development:
      • Login to FICS as registered user or guest
      • See offers to play a game
      • Filter offers by type of game, time, increment and type of rating (under development)
      • Create a new offer to play a game (under development)
      • Play a game against another FICS user (under development)
      • Timeseal support (under development)
    • Play FICS tournaments
    • Full access to FICS console
  • Chat with your opponent
    • The UI is ready for this, and we will try to implement this first for FICS games.
    • Landscape support at least for the board might be a consequence of this.
  • Real-time P2P chess
  • Customization
    • Download and select different boards and pieces.
    • Download and select different engines.
  • Asynchronous P2P chess (via email or SMS?)
  • Learn chess lessons with moves + text
    • Positions can be set manually.
    • Follow lectures from FICS (info + app)
  • Play local tournaments e.g. via Telepathy Tubes
  • Play against computer
    • Miniature is GNUChess friendly, but the work to allow games against Miniature needs to be done.
    • Old page: Default engine selection.
  • Chess variants
  • Display games by you or others, live or stored

Proposals

Add your proposals here. Remember to sign them so we know where do they come from. Just explain the brief concept. If you have further explanations post them somewhere and link from here. Thank you!

  1. Chess clock only function: It would be great to use the N900 as a chess clock only if there is a real board and a "real" opponent is available. The functionality will be in the apllication so a nice UI for this function is all what is needed.--jukey 21:57, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
  2. Chat via freechess.org should work as plugin for the messages application (xmpp/skype/googletalk/...) at the moment. How could this be done?--jukey 15:21, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

Integrated in the roadmap:

  1. Possibility to play a game human vs. human offline. In this case the board should flip 180° between two moves.--jukey 21:57, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
  2. savegame feature for human vs computer and human vs human games cause the game tends to take quite a while.
