It's not trying to help you.  It should "pull back" any invalid moves, and animate the valid ones;  that's all.  Please let me know of any repeatable weirdness.

Regarding the best possible moves, CC is so simple that the first level of play is mostly about what you can see, and I don't want the computer to help you do that!  In advanced play it's more about lookahead, and minimax-type strategy.  This progam never tries to be mean to its opponent (though it frequently happens) -- I thought others would enjoy putting that in.

Have fun.
