Potential regressing on touchpad click behaviour

In the game table, when playing with a touchpad, tapping a piece to selected it (so it shows the dots indicating the legal moves) doesn't select it. Instead it acts like the piece was slightly moved and then released.

Platform: Mac
Operating system: Mac OS X Yosemite
Browser: Safari Version 8.0.6 (10600.6.3)

Steps to reproduce the bug:

1) Open a game, puzzle of even the chess captcha, any table that you can move pieces
2) With the touchpad, tap a piece in order to select it

Expected result: Piece is selected
Actual result: Piece animates like it is being dragged and then released in the same spot

It only started happening this week so it could be related to a recent change. If I were to look somewhere to identify this bug I would look at any touchstart / mouse click event recently changed.

Thanks for the amazing site, keep up the good job
Hi thibauld.

This issue suffered yet another regression. It is happening on the normal table for chess games now too. Tapping in a piece in order to move it doesn't select it anymore on the system described in the original post. Instead, nothing happens ...

... except if it is a pre move, then it selects normally.

Can you take a look at it?

best regards and thanks for the great platform
