Queen moves only like a rook · case 03

A queen is never offered diagonal moves.

Member previewVariant 3 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Input: {"board", "from": square of a rook, bishop or queen}. Return the sorted pseudo-legal destinations: walk each ray until the edge; an empty square is added, an enemy piece is added and ends the ray, a friendly piece ends the ray without being added.

Why this case matters

Move validators gate every move in engines, servers and arbiters; accepting an illegal move or rejecting a legal one corrupts the game record.
