3.12.11.4 Correct promotion!
Problem: Every time it is your move, the program automatically promotes to a queen
whenever a pawn reaches the eighth rank. The option of underpromotion is not
offered, although you have deactivated the option "Always promote to queen" under
M e nu F ile - Opt ions - Ga m e .

A pawn is always promoted to a queen whenever the preset "Single c lic k e nt ry Aggre ssiv e " has been selected. This makes sense especially in bullet games on the
chess server, when you would not like to waste too much time responding.
You can always force the dialog for promotion by holding down Ctrl-Shift before
moving the pawn to the final rank.
