5 Player Chess

Description
[UPDATE] All the collission issues SHOULD be gone now. If there are any more problems, please inform me.

[UPDATE] With the 2.0 update, a lot of things seem to have broken further. I'll update the mod sometime tonight.

After playing around with the 3 player chess, I thought it'd be neat to try and create more player options. Seeing how this game supports 8 players to a game, I'm gonna see if it's viable to create an 8 player chess board eventually.

Also check out my 3 Player Chess: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/itemedittext/?id=280046262


Known Issues:
- You may need to load the game twice, for some reason. But after that it shouldn't have any problems.

To Do:
- Make images explaining some of the movements in the center star.


If there are any other issues I'm not spotting, please let me know. Have fun!

@Varulven Hm, I'll look into it. The mod is ancient at this point, might have broken somewhere.

A couple of the pieces refuse to load, and keep falling through the table even aftrer the gamne says the mod is 100% loaded.

@BMB Only problem is, it's not very clear as to how the game works. Where do the pawns promote? What if a pawn makes it into the starting area of an adjacent player, instead of the one adjecent to them, like they are supposed to? Can the king move through the center point? Do the turns go one to the right, one to the left, two to the right, or two to the left? If it's one of the two space things, why aren't the positions of the colors so that one can follow them chromatically? When can the pawn use the golf cart? Can the old woman be poisoned by the snake?

Details, man: They are important.

@Shylok Vakarian The biggest wildcards are the bishops, which can fork in two different directions in the center star, and the knights, which get a couple of extra options when it gets to the star. It's hard to visualize, but try placing the pieces in there and it'll make more sense when you try to move them. Check this for reference, http://www.quadibloc.com/chess/ch0205.htm

Looks awesome, but one complaint: I can't find ANY rules on 5-player chess.

@someone64 Ah, ok. Duly noted! I shall update it.

I highly recommend that you make all the pieces' collisions plain cylinders. Non-convex objects don't collide each other but if everthing is a cylinder (just like the chess that comes with the game) then it will work better than how it is now.

Alrighty, the mod has been updated.
