Thanks a lot for your report. Any idea, report, feedback is always useful. They make BSG be better, help both developers and users. All are always more than welcome
Can you post the end of those games here to verify? If BSG works correctly, it should rule the games based on 6 half-moves of each side, 6 full-moves, or 12 plies in total.Rom77 wrote: ↑Sun May 03, 2020 5:16 am 1. It seems that I have one more problem related to languages. The file "logengins.txt" is not created if the path to it contains Russian letters. At the same time, both other files - "tourgames.pgn" and "logresults.txt" are created and written normally when using any path. I did not check the "logengins.txt" file entry before, but now I decided to check it, and here is such a surprise. Of course, I can place this file in a directory whose path contains only Latin characters, but maybe there is a simple solution to the problem, which will not be difficult for you to implement?
As I understand it, "logengins.txt" is the only file out of three that is recorded during the game. Maybe this is the source of the problem? Unfortunately, this file is not recorded even after the end of the game. In addition, the path to all three files in JSON still looks strange: "path": C:/u0417/u0430/u0433/u0440/u0443/u0437/u043a/u0438/Chess/BanksiaGui/Tests/logengins.txt "
2. Awarding the victory in the game occurs for twice as many half-moves as specified in the settings. For example, I have set the victory award ("Resign by engine scores") when exceeding the "Score threshold" -800 cp for 6 ply "Two sides", but the game is awarded after 12 ply on both sides. It is right?
Score indicator works based on the current score of the engine that is in turn. Some engines may delay printing out scores or print out incorrect scores (in terms of overall situations), especially in hard cases.Rom77 wrote: ↑Sun May 03, 2020 5:16 am 3. Windows => About => Auto check for newer versions
This position is restored after each restart of the GUI. But it should not be so. Otherwise, this option does not make sense.
4. When switching between game tabs in a tournament, the "Score graph" window is not immediately updated. First you have to go to the next tab/window "Engine log", then go back to the tab/window "Score graph", which only then will be updated.
5. The "Score indicator" next to the board is not too sensitive to small changes in the score. It moves noticeably only when the situation on the board is almost hopeless. This is not very convenient.
You and/or anyone has ideas to improve? Should we use the average score of two sides or last several ones?
All other bugs will be fixed soon. Thanks againRom77 wrote: ↑Sun May 03, 2020 5:16 am 6. If during the tournament you often call up the "Show all plaing games" window, it will appear lower and lower each time. As a result, you need to constantly raise it up. It would be nice to somehow stabilize this window.
7. Maybe in the "logresults.txt" file it would be better to separate tournaments that go one after another? It is also useful to enter additional information about the tournament. For example, after "Tournamemt finished! Elapsed: 1:26:51" and the start of the next tournament, enter an empty line, and then something like this:
"Tournamemt started! Date 2020.05.01, 10:45:00, Time Control 8400 + 40."
