Miwarre • Developers agree that it is a good idea and intend to work on it:
17. Jul 2022 20:05 • This is done on purpose; in fact "it" already knows which moves are possible (obviously), but I tried to mimic as much as possible a "real" board, in which possible moves are not shown of course.
The exceptions being:
1) the removable stones at the beginning, as it is much simpler to show them rather than describing the logic behind them;
2) the possible destinations of a capturing stone, primarily as, particularly in the case of multiple captures, it is again much simpler to show them rather than having multiple steps "Capture again or end your turn?"
The idea of an option might be good, but it may create a difference between the player who knows about it (and uses it) and the player who did not discover it (yet), as I assume many users do not look into the options and just accept the default.
I am going to raise the point in the group, anyway.

An option has been added to hide this highlight, if you prefer
Once you arrive at the game board ready to play, it is strongly advisable to reload the full page (Ctrl-F5) to update any locally cached resource.
