@Aryan Hi. Just wondering if you could get to the sorting of cards in Hokm. Moreover, I'd like to suggest that users be allowed to save their games, both online and offline. This is especially important for longer games like chess and hokm. Users can come back later and continue playing saved games. Finally, it would be great to add a couple of descriptive keys to chess to describe the status, one's turn/ move, and the board over-all. This was suggested by a couple of chess players.
@Aman

@amir @Aryan hello. Saving offline games, local play, and vs-computer matches is totally doable. Online saves are a different story, though, we'd have to deal with JSON packets and state management. Plus, if someone goes offline, they might not even be around when the other players want to resume the game anyway lol.

@Aman I understand. Saving online games mostly appeals to chess players who have requested that feature though.
@Aryan

@amir @Aryan i will try, but the thing is that if even one player is not online at the time you wanna resume, that breaks the flow of the game, and considering that chess is a 2-player game. and yeah, games like tt, and chess (offline) has a saving feature, simply press f2 while playing the game and the game state will be saved in a json file.

@Aman @Aryan Thanks.
Please also consider adding those single keys to chess for status/ movement/ board report.

@amir Would you mind sharing the shortcut keys for chess? I don't really play, so I'm not sure which actions need to be accessed quickly. @Aryan

@Aman Sure. Feel free to add the ones you can or the ones which don't pose issues.
