1) Bugs fixed: almost all known bugs so far, including (serious ones):
- Crashed when creating a database and/or open games from databases in some systems
- Could not parse some PGN games
- Ruled O-O+ and O-O-O+ as illegal moves
- Did not swap multi-timers when changing engines’ sides in tournaments


2) Some small improvements/adjustments

3) New features:
- Open PGN games from URLs

The speed that this guy is releasing is breath-taking - I really wish we could support him somehow.

I'm going to review Banksia on my website, so that'll get him a ton of new users, but still...

This GUI is going to the the dominant one for computer chess by end of 2020, I have no doubts.

Love it.



Really impressive work.

Yes, it is still alpha and released unofficially via that link. I will make half-officially releases soon

For me, a bigger number is a bit better since I have some chance to clear some bugs (as well as adding some new ones ) and add some new features.

BTW, what do you mean "saving multiple ongoing tournaments"? Can you explain more? Thanks.

He means, say you have an ongoing 20 round swiss going on with 300 engines...this will take time.

What if he wants to pause that tournament and run a quick Stockfish gauntlet...he can't.

Have to finish the big swiss first.

Therefore, it'd be great to be able to save an ongoing tournament to a "current tournament.bkst" file or whatever and resume whenever you like, regardless of how many tournaments have run in between.

Very interesting idea! Sure I will implement it. Thanks all a lot.
