Hi,

When a chessengine or user enters a SAN move, do I need to know what moves
he is capable at that moment of doing? Or is it enough to know what pieces
are where on the board?


Folkert

You should be able to get the exact move given just the pieces on the
board and a correctly formatted SAN move, that includes all proper
disambiguation such as Ngf3 or Rhd1.
