The applet just put my King in check from a Rook while it was in check from a Knight. The Position on Black's side of the river looks like this: +---+---+---K---+---G---+---N---+ | | | | | / | | | | +---+---+---N---p---+---+---+---+ | | | | / | | | | | +---+---n---+---c---r---+---+---+ | | | | | | | | | P---+---P---+---+---+---P---+---P | | | | | | | | | +---+---E---+---+---+---+---+---+
