It seems you are using CECP instead of UCI, I don't know anything about CECP. Your engine interfaces with Winboard and Winboard interfaces with the server, I really don't understand what the difference can be between locally and remote, but it is good to hear that you solved it.Henk wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 7:21 pmProblem was a missing ''go" command. New server does not use it after first move from opponent. I already did a quick and dirty repair. So looks like it is fixed now in my engine.Joost Buijs wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 1:38 pmI see that your tournament variable is still set (maybe because you left the server before the tourney was finished), now you can't match players without their tourney variable set.Henk wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 1:16 pmWhen I try "match …" It complains "tournament variable is not set"Joost Buijs wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 8:48 pmMaybe something has changed on your end.
I know that you had a bad computer crash several months ago, and that you had to setup everything new on another PC, after this event you didn't play on HGM's server anymore.
The server is online 24 hours a day, usually there are several programs logged in and ready to play, so it should not be too difficult to find out why your program does not respond anymore after playing a single game.
Just login and type: set tourney 0
This should solve it.
With the command: var - you can see the state of all your variables.
I used to use 'go"command to change sides during a game when I was playing against my engine for testing purposes. But that won't work anymore. For current implementation can now handle only one "go" command per game.
If I play against fairy-max with winboard running locally on my computer it still has to work with a go command.

Thanks! Works like a charm! But I need to figure out how to pass engine parameters (Igel is UCI)Joost Buijs wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 11:05 pmI've added an account for Igel, you should have received the password by email.

Re: On-line engine blitz tourney November
Probably you will use Winboard/Xboard or ICSDroneng to connect to the server, they all use Polyglot to translate UCI messages to CECP and vice versa. You can set the engine parameters in the Polyglot.ini file.voffka wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 11:25 pmThanks! Works like a charm!

You can also try to connect your engine to the server via Arena, but I have no idea how reliable this is.

Re: On-line engine blitz tourney November
Thanks Joost. To make it easy I simply re-compiled Igel with the built-in parameters. Just to make sure I understand the tourney rules - each of us can you any parameters we want, e.g. a lot of memory and threads, we are not limited by tourney rules?Joost Buijs wrote: ↑Sat Nov 09, 2019 7:15 amProbably you will use Winboard/Xboard or ICSDroneng to connect to the server, they all use Polyglot to translate UCI messages to CECP and vice versa.
