BUG: Infinite loop and standstill ends

[partha120804]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

What happened?

The puzzle can get stuck in an infinite loop at the end,
we can maybe find some way to alert the user about it, or stop animation if such an end is reached.

Or sometime we reach an end in which no further animation is possible, but the animation still continues.

Example

Infinite Loop

Standstill end

Solution

We have to store the grid pattern and compare it to the next pattern for each frame to see if there are any new changes or not, and if there are no changes then it creates a alert box or just pauses animation.

there's also issue with event listeners when grid size is modified, can you look into that too
