phhnguyen, here are a few more problems, suggestions, ideas:
1. The following sequence of actions almost always causes crash:
- Run the GUI. We create "New tournament" (but we do not start). Close the GUI.
- Launch the GUI again, create the "New tournament" (but do not launch it yet).
- From the "Tournament" window we launch the tournament ("Resume").
- Do a double click on the first game in the "Tournament" window. A tab with a game appears above the board, although its display is disabled ("None" is on, but the game is displayed). Go to the other tab (Human vs. Human) and close it. Minimize the GUI window.
- After the end of the first game, deploy the GUI.
- Hanging GUI. The error message.
2. New tournament => Adjudication: => Max game lenght:
Adjudication is indicated in ply. Maybe it’s better to indicate it in the moves? Or at least add a pop-up comment?
3. Tournament
The "status" column displays ply, not the moves. Is that what you intended?
4. Tournament
After clicking "Right click" and then “Delete all” or “Reset to reuse”, a warning “Are you sure?” is desirable, since any wrong click can accidentally erase the entire tournament.
5. Tournament
After selecting a game, or several games, the down arrow does not work. The up arrow only works correctly once.
6. Tournament
Once, in one of the games of the tournament, a "timeout" failure occurred. After that, "Reset selection" was selected for this game and the GUI was restarted. But after restarting the GUI, the message "timeout" for the problematic game appeared again. After re-selecting "Reset selection", the game was restarted. But in the already replayed game, the following problem arose - there was no award of the result for "Resign score" - the GUI finished the game until the checkmate. In the following games there were no problems with the award.
7. Tournament result
Even if "Use percent" is disabled, then at the end of the match, the results in the logresults.txt file are still given in percent.
8. Tournament result
It was difficult for me to immediately guess that the numbers on the “Plain text” tab, designated as “nodes” actually mean “nodes / move”.
9. Tournament result
Not a single tab has a percentage of points scored - "score%". Maybe add it to some place?
10. Tournament
Is it possible to make the "status" column a little wider by default so that the word "playing" fits on one line (on my computer, the last letter g is transferred to the next line)? I can’t fix it myself - after restarting the GUI, the column width is reset to the default value.
11. Tournament
There is an idea - to make it possible to set "Сoncurrency:" = 0. In this case, this parameter would work as a kind of smooth stoppage of the tournament, stopping the games only after their completion. That would allow to suspend the tournament without canceling the already running games.
12. Tournament
What does the “Result” item mean in a pop-up menu after clicking “Right click” on the game? If this is a forced result setting (correction of the result of a game that has already ended), then it does not work. And under certain circumstances, this is a very necessary function.
13. New tournament => Adjudication: => Max game lenght:
What does "Draw by scores" mean? Is it setting a specific threshold for fixing a draw, after a specified number of ply? I did not notice a difference when setting or removing this item. A draw is always fixed when the specified ply number is reached, regardless of the score of the chess engines. If this mark really defines a certain threshold for evaluating chess engines for fixing a draw, can it be done so that it can be somehow regulated? For example, let's say I want to fix draws after 150 moves, with an estimate in the range +/- 0.3.
