I am going to push this to production tomorrow. I made a few other minor improvements too. For example, if throughput drops below 1KNs, the rate is shown as Ns (more informative than the old 0KNs).

Re: Chess for Android: UCI engine options
Shouldn't that be 1kNs? Lower-case k.

Re: Chess for Android: UCI engine options
I actually noticed another inaccuracy. Names with spaces are recognized correctly (I knew that was allowed), but values with spaces are not (I was not sure that was allowed). For example, UCI engine CT800 has the following option.
Here the name "Show Current Move" is parsed correctly, but the value "Every Second" is not. A proper fix for this is pending too.
Code: Select all
option name Show Current Move type combo default Every Second var Every Second var Continuously

Re: Chess for Android: UCI engine options
This annoyed me , so version 6.1.7 is rolling out, which now also accepts spaces in values (names were done correctly already).
I vaguely remember that some engines had issues with lower/uppercase too. That is perhaps for a later improvement.
This version also displays kNs to make Folkert happy.....

Re: Chess for Android: UCI engine options
Hi,
I just tried the chess engine DanaSah. After the last update from „Chess for Android“
You can set in this engine the ELO 0 - 2500, choose the style (from 1-5: passive - to very aggressive) and the opening book (I chose the gambit.book) in a few seconds! The UCI engine options can be set very quick/intuitive. Perfect for people that want to play against engines - for example on the DGT/ChessGeniusExclusive board. The last update was a HUGE improvement!
