Okay, all pieces can now move through the portal freely! This means the base of the game is done, and fully playable. There's still more to do, namely new models for everything, functionality such as changing teams on rematch. And some game rules that are yet to be decided on, like castling through a portal.
However, in its current state the game is fully playable. Changes to gameplay/functionality will be minimal from here so hope you have fun playing :D
This update included adding functionality for the rest of the pieces, this was relatively easy, Bishops followed a pretty similar formula to rooks, and queen was just a copy and paste of rook and bishop movement. Knights were also easy, since they don't have as many requirements to move as other pieces (like worrying about being blocked) it was a quick add. Kings were also easy, they move one square, easy addition.
I also got this project up and running on Linux, only had a couple issues to sort but a release of a Linux version will be added soon.
Not to much a game change, but did a big clean-up of the code in this release, mostly adding a consistent naming convention across the board and removing some unneeded extra lines. will probably do some more in the next update as i know there is some stuff that can be moved to methods and simplified.
