ThreadRook is a small Discord bot that allows you to play chess on any Discord server! It's entirely built with Rust, on top of - Poise, Pleco, and Shuttle.
- Chess in a self-managing public thread. No bloat, just a stringified chess board, each player's time, and all the legal moves in the current position.
- Slash commands: Every interaction with the chess match is done through slash commands. Moves are notated as strings so you can take your turn from any channel in the server.
- Replace system communication between
chess_matchs (currently message passing) with an easy to understand database. - Add a robust testing suite.
- Allow users to choose between Rapid, Bullet, and Classical chess when creating a match.
- Allow users to create private, invite-only matches.
- Allow users to have rematches without creating a new match.
- Optional Chess.com integration (e.g. displaying elo)
- Cross-server matches
- A much prettier chess board
