Porting my Rubido (playdate version) to Bangle JS2 (chinese checkers / solitaire game)

Hey gordon,

I managed to implement the background counting of movesleft. I've used the setinterval function todo this. And now we can keep on playing immediatly after a move was done and it will update the movesleft value once it has done calculating them. I just call the GameLoop one more time to verify if it is a winning game and draw the results basically my code looks like this now :

//procedure that starts the movesLeftIter function using an interval to loop over
//all pegs
function movesLeft() {
 if(movesLeftTimer)
    clearInterval(movesLeftTimer);
  movesLeftCount = 0;
  pegsLeft = 0;
  movesLeftX = 0;
  movesLeftY = 0;
  movesLeftTimer = setInterval(movesLeftIter, 0);
}

// procedure that calculates how many moves are possible in the current board state for 1 Peg
// we can simply do this by checking all parts and see if they can move to all directions
// the canmoveto method in CPegs is does all the checking
function movesLeftIter() {
  //print (BoardParts.Items[Y][X]);
  // if there is a boardpart on that X,Y Coordinate
  // check all direction if we can move to that if so increases the movesleft
  if (BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX]) {
    if (BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX].AnimPhase < 2) {
      pegsLeft++;
      movesLeftCount += CPeg_CanMoveTo(BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX], movesLeftX + 2, movesLeftY, false);
      movesLeftCount += CPeg_CanMoveTo(BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX], movesLeftX - 2, movesLeftY, false);
      movesLeftCount += CPeg_CanMoveTo(BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX], movesLeftX, movesLeftY - 2, false);
      movesLeftCount += CPeg_CanMoveTo(BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX], movesLeftX, movesLeftY + 2, false);
      movesLeftCount += CPeg_CanMoveTo(BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX], movesLeftX + 2, movesLeftY - 2, false);
      movesLeftCount += CPeg_CanMoveTo(BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX], movesLeftX + 2, movesLeftY + 2, false);
      movesLeftCount += CPeg_CanMoveTo(BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX], movesLeftX - 2, movesLeftY + 2, false);
      movesLeftCount += CPeg_CanMoveTo(BoardParts.Items[movesLeftY][movesLeftX], movesLeftX - 2, movesLeftY - 2, false);
    }
  }
  movesLeftX++;
  if(movesLeftX == NROFCOLS)
  {
    movesLeftY++;
    if((movesLeftY == NROFROWS) && (movesLeftX == NROFCOLS))
    {
      clearInterval(movesLeftTimer);
      prevMovesLeftCount = movesLeftCount;
      prevPegsLeft = pegsLeft;
      if(GameState == GSGAME)
        loop();
      return;
    }
    movesLeftX = 0;
  }
}

and that seems to work fine
