Does XBetza allow defining pieces that capture by stopping in the square just before the captured piece?
Also, somewhat related to that, I was thinking there are a lot of potential pieces that could be defined if it were possible to specify different priority levels for movement options, such that a piece must make the highest priority kind of move available. For example, there might be a piece that moves as a queen, but can only make a non-capturing move if it has no available captures.
Another question I have is, does 0 have any meaning when used as a piece's range? If not, perhaps it could be used to indicate that a piece must move as far as possible in whichever direction it goes.
