Variant 〜 From Position

[Unihedro]

"Analysis" of variant game -> "Continue from here" leads to creating standard game!

may be effective after #571 first.

Currently From Position is treated as its own mode, probably to keep an efficient database structure. For better UX, probably adding selectors under the board in From Position creation for variants is good enough, but there are probably better ways.

Let this be the token of "I didn't open yet another dup".

In enabling news, #571 is done now.

i'd be interested in working in this, although it seems that a big refactoring would be required given how currently "From Position" works as a variant... maybe we should create a discussion and try to break it down into smaller steps?

I don't see what there is to work on, as the issue has long been solved.

wait is it currently possible to start a variant game from custom board? 😳 I can't find an option to do this in the app
