There are three timeouts defined in the SVG / embedded javascript code, on lines 66-68 (https://github.com/jnykopp/svg-embedded-chess/blob/a24249729...) You can increase COMP_MOVE_TIMEOUT (which is now 1 millisecond) to, say, 100 milliseconds. RESET TIMEOUT defines how long the game is paused after game is finished to let the viewer to see the result, and NEW_GAME_START_TIMEOUT defines how long to wait before doing the first move when a new game is started. The static image may be because of some browser security mechanisms; served as raw from GitHub the SVG is not animated for me either on Firefox, but when I download the SVG and view it from local drive in Firefox, it works. (It did work when served from GitHub at some point in history, though.) |

Is embedding intelligent logic inside of SVGs for animation a common thing -- feels very novel to me. Kudos for the idea and execution!
I am wondering if it is possible to push it even further and bring more and more creative logic -- say to create some unique patterns / designs etc that render differently each time. Say a swirling ripples animation that keeps changing over time but never feels like it is "pre-recorded".
Also, can animated SVGs be embedded in powerpoint and the like -- so we get crisp vector animated design elements in a compact portable format?
I do worry that this can also open some possible attacks -- malicious URLs in a dynamically generated QR, for example.
