Atomic chess beta

The bishop disappeared because it did in fact explode.

When the pawn on c4 captured your pawn on d4, it was capturing "en passant".

Since the piece that was taken was your pawn on d4, your bishop on d5 was taken, according to the rules of atomic chess (your bishop was one square away from the pawn that was taken on d4).
@Dionysus_god,
You're a little not understand the essence of the bug.
Why, then, the white bishop is visible in the analysis of the game?
Why was not the mat, if white bishop was blown up (as you say)?
Kreedz is right. The origin of the explosion is d3 in that case (the landing square of the en passant pawn), so the bishop on d5 should not explode.
The FICS rules at http://www.freechess.org/Help/HelpFiles/atomic.html support Kreedz' claim and Assios' statement -- the Bd5 should not explode:
"(From the above it should be clear that an en-passant move's 'ground zero' is the square the capturing pawn moves to. The captured pawn is then removed and the explosion takes place)."
Oops.

I thought the square of the piece that was captured was the origin from which the pieces explode.

After my opponent castles, It makes the red overlay (as if something had exploded) and the king disappears but later in the games the king reappears.
Hello. I report bug in analysis of atomic games. After the game when you replay moves, all pieces return to starting position after move 6 or so, and then don't move.

Bug#2
Also sometimes opponent king dissapears fom the board after he castles, and I can;t see his where his king to the end of the game
At least 3 bugs.
1- king can sometimes disapear on moves or castle
2- cannot prevent check by "exploding" checking piece
3- takeback makes nice mess on the board.
