The site fails to calculate the best move when using the "Natural" Piece Animations (accessible within Board and Pieces) setting within chess.com

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to 'chess.com'
  2. Click on 'Settings' on the sidebar, then 'All Settings'
  3. Click on 'Board and Pieces' on the sidebar, then see the 'Piece Animations' drop-down menu
  4. Change to 'Natural', then click 'Save'
  5. A.C.A.S will crash and no longer show pieces or recognize the site being open.

Desktop:

  • OS: Windows 10 22H2 (19045.4412)
  • Browser: Firefox (LibreWolf), Tampermonkey
  • Version: A.C.A.S 2.1.9

The site will begin calculation correctly if using 'None', 'Slow', 'Medium', or 'Fast' ('Arcade' not tested).

This is a known bug, which happens due to Chess.com using a canvas to display the board, which is basically just an image. The userscript cannot parse the board layout from an image right now.
