Arena 1.1 linux and tournament
Posted: Sun Nov 10, 2019 9:24 pm
Hello,
I got a question concerning Arena 1.1 build 121 for Linux. I set a tournament with 2 engines and an EPD file. The EPD file has 12 positions. Each engine must play with white and black so there is a total of 24 games.
In the tournament settings, I enter 24 rounds, round robin. In the option, I enter "load from EPD sequentially", , "repeat start position with switched colors". Here is the problem :
game 1, position 1, engine A plays with white
game 2, position 1, engine A plays with black, fine until now.
game 3, position 1, engine A plays with white
game 4, position 1, engine A plays with black etc...
Problem, the next position is never played. I tried 12 rounds, same problem. 2 rounds, it plays only the first 2 games from position 1. I also tried to uncheck "repeat start position with switched colors" and 24 rounds, the next positions are played but this not what I need because the engines will play twice the same position with the same color.
Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug in the linux version ?
Thank you.
Best Regards.
