Tic-tac-toe issues

JavaScript

Hello once again. Like I mentioned in my last post, I’m trying to get the legacy front-end certification. I’m only missing the tic-tac-toe game at this point, but it’s going really badly.

The main game logic is finished, but what concerns me is the algorithm.

For some reason, when there is a corner move available, the thing just goes nuts and tries to play every move, and then goes into an infinite loop.

My project is below:

can you describe how to see this in action?

Sure. Just follow the sequence below:

  1. Choose to play as x
  2. Open the console
  3. Play on literally any square
  4. The thing gets stuck for a few seconds
  5. When it gets unstuck, the algorith goes nuts (both on the board and the console)

Or, alternativetly, just choose to play as O and see what the algorithm comes up with

Please. It’s been 3 months and I still cant find the issue

I don’t see the behaviour you described

the only bug I see is that if you fill the board a tie it does’t recognise the tie

Oh yeah, i forgot to update the reproduction steps (as i did make some fixes, but the main issue still there)

  1. Play as X
  2. Play the Middle square
  3. Play any of the side squares next to the middle square

The algorith will play multiple times
