Organizing an engine Tournament with this GUI is a total nightmare, and very much not User Friendly. Commands and instructions are not comprehensible. You also have to write all engine parameters from the beginning for every tournament. Creating a simple engine tournament shouldn't take an hour. I guess back to good old Arena
Thanks for the report and sorry to hear that.
Could you help me by giving the name of one or some engines as well as one or some of their parameters in which you have the problem? Basically, BSG must auto remember all settings, including engines' options. Thanks again.

By chance I happen to update LC0 to the latest pull request (Dev v 26), it happened to be yours . Anyway I have not had any problems at all today with Leela and the latest version of Banksia GUI when it comes to LiChess Bots and to timeout issues. Plus I must say (Side Note and Off Topic) that MLH seems to improve Leela's endgame play. Anyway thanks for all of your work.
Nice to hear that! The timeout issue of the Lichess bot is still one of the hardest issues to solve. It may happen when we set bots to auto time (since engines tend to use all time they have thus there is no reserved time for network/internal GUI-engine lags).
BTW, I had some chances to work with Lc0, dev versions too. For the next release, BSG will support Lc0's new option UCI_ShowMovesLeft even it is not merged yet

I was able to load the live pgn from TCEC , Now I would like to request a way to load an engine and place it in analysis mode so I can see it's evals as the game is being played / updated.
Thanks

Exactly
This is highly requested from the world of chesslovers!
You know I was thinking that with the broadcast feature you have Build into Banksia GUI, you could probably setup a Banksia TV page on your website to display games that are in progress and that are being braodcasted. This might drive even more traffic to your website for those who are interested in computer chess as well as human versus computer matches. Just a thought.
PS: Might be even more useful if you had a chat window included for online game discussion.

I have been working on that. However, it is harder than my first glance (maybe delay).
BTW, how can I get the live PGN links of TCEC? Thanks!
