a more up to date version of this ended up in xdecor
I played on a server (Tiny creative world) yesterday and today, that has this in xdecor (running on Minetest 5.5.0, so I'm assuming the mod is up to date, if the server is) and it seems even worse in that mod :( Attacking pawns also disappear when you capture (meaning both attacker and captured piece are removed from the board). When I try to take another piece with a non-pawn (e.g. a bishop) then it does not take the piece, instead it SAYS (playername)has moved a bishop, it is now your turn (without any capture or move actually happening), and just switches sides... so it becomes the other player (colour)'s turn to play... effectively just forfeiting your turn without playing any moves. It is also NOT possible for two players to play in the same chess game. It just says that it is another player's turn... Castling is also broken as I described already (long side moves the king 3 squares in this game, while it should be 2 squares regardless of whether castling is to the short or long side).
This version of realchess doesn't even have the notation (which is also horribly incorrect, using > instead of - and x to indicate moves and captures) on the side of the game.
I guess the devs/modders involved with this realchess mod are not actually chess players :(
