Create your own opening patterns

Pasang Emas version 2.1.0 has a new feature. It is now possible for players to create their own opening patterns. Clicking the menu item [Game | Custom Patterns] opens up the pattern editor.


The editor is so simple that I didn't bother to write a user guide for it. You may create as many patterns as you wish. Each pattern must consists of exactly 60 white pieces. To use the patterns simply click [Apply].

The screen shot below shows a game opening using a custom-made pattern.


Here are some patterns that I composed:


All of them, except the last two, have symmetrical 6x6 (overlapping) tiles. Some are "pairs" that use the same tiles but arranged differently. The first pattern also has a night-and-day symmetry where the pattern and the background form the same shape.
