Myracle GUI

[mar]

build 111 is up:
- fix: the linux file list crash as reported here
- (blind) fix: attempt to fix freeze problem that happens when another window has captured mouse while a modal dialog is being created;
not sure it fixes "THE" bug, but it definitely fixes the following freeze: start dragging a piece and press ctrl-shift-N,
a soft-freeze would happen in older builds
- minor cosmetic change: give more space for engine name in engine info at the bottom

Hi Martin,
I use ELO ratings in the Gui and to keep 700+ engines actual this is to work one's fingers to the bone. Would it be possible to import the ratings from the Ordo rating list? And also an option to sort the installed engines in the tournament dialog to their ratings?
Just an idea from a clueless user

Ordo rating list looks like this

Code: Select all

   1 HYDRA                           :  3040.4   13.0    3278    72    30  2857.8

hmm, yes. one of the reasons why didn't want to add elo in the first place
also elo can differ from tc to tc, it's only relative etc.

as for sorting, there is a sort button in player engines, but you probably mean sorting in the list you pick from?
importing ordo ratings is quite an ad hoc idea... but it seems to have a similar format to elostat.
I don't remember how bayeselo rating file looks like. would be nice to be able to parse everything at once.

I'll make a note, who knows... no promises

... but you probably mean sorting in the list you pick from?

Yes, exactly. So I can quick pick 30 engines of similar strength for a tournament and don't have to fiddle around with the external rating list. I made this since 4 years in Banksia and update the elos around 3 to 5 times a year. Yeah, I'm crazy
Thanks that you noted it.

build 112 is up:
- fix: anomaly log is appended to if a tour is loaded instead of being overwritten
- failures to load/start and engine are logged as events in anomaly log
- elo push button in new/edit tour to sort installed engines by elo
- new tool to import ratings from ordo-compatible rating output (tools/import ratings from ordo)
