Conditional premoves feature in correspondence

Lichess, Lidraughts and Lishogi have a feature where in a correspondence game, you can predict a opponent's move like a obvious or forced move, and then you can make your own moves based on their move.

Not having this feature can be particularly bothersome in draughts where you must wait for your opponent's move to capture and chess-like games when there are obvious moves.

While playing in correspondence on those sites, you can click on Analysis board icon:

And there you can make conditional premoves that will be played automatically in the game if opponent does said move:

Hi @ll
This is a good suggestion, but for improvements to draughts we need to make some addition infrastructure changes before we can implement this suggestion and therefore I can't provide an estimation on when this feature will be available.
