Cute Chess 0.9.0 (GUI) released

[Krzysztof Grzelak]

During the game are saved movements of the chess engines as follows - please see the picture.



And if not nicer to look like that, you can save the movement as shown below in the picture.



May I kindly ask you to add options " Swiss tournament ".

2. Change the game save. For example, the moves next to each other 1. d4 e6 2. c4 f5 3. g3 Nf6 4. Bg2 Be7 5. Nc3 d5 6. Nf3 c6 7. O-O O-O 8. b3 Qe8 9. Bb2 Nbd7 10. e3 b6 11. Ne2 Ne4 . But also allow to enable or disable rating and time movement in the game.

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean.

He says that the moves panel should not limit to print just 2 moves per line, but played moves list should be a single string without "\n", he made a later post to explain it better with a picture.

Thanks to everyone for being willing to beta-test Cute Chess. I've now fixed the major bugs that were found and released version 0.9.1: https://github.com/cutechess/cutechess/ ... /gui-0.9.1

There will most likely be more bugs, but at this point it's best to release fixes quickly so that's what I'm doing.

Importing a crazyhouse game database with game whose Variant tag is Crazyhouse instead of crazyhouse (small c) would crash Cute Chess when selecting that particular game.

Although the user should ensure that the Variant tag should be crazyhouse, Cute Chess should at least withstand the crash.

Crazyhouse games from Lichess has this type of tag value.

Game->Close is behaving like Game->quit.

The crashing bug is fixed in master branch. I have one more minor fix pending and then I'll release v0.9.2.

I'll create an issue about making the Variant tag case-insensitive when parsing/importing.

Thanks. It was a silly bug and is now fixed in master.

Suggestion:
In the result display, place the gauntlet engine at the top.

There is a stockfish engine that can play variants, (used in Lichess including standard chess) it declares the variants it can play via UCI_<Variant name> option, probably not according to uci protocol. Cute Chess does not show these options in advanced tab. What if you will show this in engine advanced tab, the user will enable one or more of this options and when a variant is selected during tournament setup, or whatever, the engine will be shown as one of the engines that a user can select.

In the result box on 2-engine RR, the score percentage seemed not calculated.

Suggestion (1)
Add variant name in the game wall box title.




Suggestion (2)
In variant atomic, add explosion graphics at ground zero
