I noticed this unusual behavior

given the below board,
if player ░░ places at [2,8]
it considers it a capture of the player ██s pieces

 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
0██████████████████
1██████████████████
2████████████████  
3████████████████░░
4██████████████████
5██████████████████
6██████████████████
7██████████████████
8██████████████████

capture @ 8,2 by 1
 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
0                  
1                  
2                ░░
3                ░░
4                    
5                  
6                  
7                  
8                  

I saw the closed issue, but I was wondering if you had somewhere I could look for an algorithm to score the game. I'm sure someone's done it before, I just can't figure out where.

Thanks!

Does the current program support hijacking verification, and how is it written?

(suppose it depends on what rules you are using but)
how to count territory?

What's the reasoning behind this line

Is it to allow for flexibility in letting us use any positive integer to represent Black and any negative integer to represent White?
I think this would, however, never see its use if we made use of the type file.
