Variant: Fog of war #47

scriptin posted onGitHub

I saw a chess version of this game mode. Basically, you only see the cells surrounding your own stones. I guess 8 surrounding cells, but maybe wider ranges will be interesting too.

I suppose it could be way more fun with Go (compared to chess) due to the bigger board size.

We actually have discussed this over on discord a few times. We haven't managed to get to a conclusion on what kind of vision, or how much of it, stones should give. If we show the surrounding points, you miss moves like the keima approach, which feels odd. If you show a circle with radius 2, the board lights up so quickly that it feels meaningless. One of the interesting ideas provided by a community member is that a group would have a light radius equal to the number of stones in it, up to a limit.

This should be a relatively simple feature to implement once we figure out good rules for it.
