RexBoard Board And Chess

Use this skill for the core RexBoard data model: a board with a grid, dimensions, chess pieces, tile layers, occupancy, and optional input events.

Use This First

Establish these before writing board logic:

Required Setup

This skill assumes RexBoard setup and a grid are already available. If not, use rexboard-setup-and-factory and rexboard-grids-and-coordinates.

Read these only when needed:

• references/board-config.md: board construction, embedded grid configs, wrap/infinity settings.
• references/chess-model.md: tile/chess placement, tileZ layers, occupancy, blockers, and plain data pieces.

Core Rules

• Board extends the logic board with scene input support; LogicBoard is the core data model.
• Always create or pass a grid before board operations that require coordinate conversion.
• Treat tileZ as part of the chess coordinate, not optional metadata.
• Use align: true when adding or moving rendered chess that should snap to grid world coordinates.
• Use isEmptyTileXYZ, tileXYZToChess, and tileXYToChessArray for occupancy checks.
• Keep plain data chess and Phaser game object chess workflows distinct.

Gotchas

• wrap and infinity change containment, neighbor, and movement behavior.
• Board input events require board.setInteractive(...).
• Some emitted event names are only obvious in plugins/board/board/input/*.js; inspect source when documenting exact events.
• A tile can be occupied on one tileZ layer and empty on another.
