1. Let ~/.emacs consist of this sexp, for example (anything that makes a
default header line -- crucially in the init file -- will do):
(setq-default header-line-format "test")
2. Start Emacs with the above init file.
3. M-x gomoku
4. When the human player uses the mouse to make moves and positions the
mouse pointer such that it is as low as possible within the chosen
position -- i.e., the position is highlighted but the dot is visible --
then the completed move occupies the the position immediately below the
one aimed at (or if the lower position is occupied, Gomoku will
complain, even though the mouse pointer is clearly on a free position,
as evidenced by the highlighting).

This is an old bug report from 9 years ago, that unfortunately didn't
get an answer at the time.

I'm unable to reproduce this on Emacs 26.1.  Are you still seeing this
on a more modern version of Emacs?

Best regards,

(Sorry for the late reply, I was travelling when you posted and
overlooked it when I got back.)  Thanks for the reminder.  I cannot
reproduce the issue anymore either, so am therefore closing this bug.

No need to apologize for that; thanks for reporting back.
