Mirrored piece moves when move is pushed to the board about python-chess HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi. Can you please try

print(new_move)
print(boardData.fen())
boardData.push(new_move)
print(boardData.fen())

to get more info?

Aside: Note that if chess.Move(index, sqr) in boardData.legal_moves: will never exactly match promotions.

Here is the data output when moving the white pawn on a2 to a4:

Move to commit(new_move):  a2a4
Pre-push board data:  rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR w KQkq - 0 1
Post-push board data:  rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/P7/8/1PPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR b KQkq - 0 1

Please note that this program is unfinished and piece promotions have not been implemented yet.

Sure, I just thought i should mention it.

The output looks as expected to me. A white pawn starts on a2. White pieces are uppercase in FENs. The first rank goes last.

So, what is the problem then?

Please excuse my slow reply to your comments. I am on vacation and am out of town a lot.

Maybe you're drawing the board mirrored or with inverted colors? You could also try print(boardData) to see in the console how it should look like.

Happy holidays!
