UCI tournament question

[RedBedHed]

Hey there!

I am trying to configure my engine to play tournaments in cutechess. I can't find any documentation on which UCI commands are issued during tournament play. I have implemented ucinewgame. However, my engine can only play the tournament's first game; the remaining games occur almost instantaneously and are treated as losses.

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Pass the optional flag -debug to cutechess in order to see what commands it is sending.
I would think cutechess only sends ucinewgame between games, and nothing else. Assuming you have not passed the -restart flag, but you can confirm this easily enough.

Ah, okay. Thank you for this info!

I figured it out, lol. I was giving the tournament 0 seconds between rounds. With 1 second of delay between rounds, everything is working perfectly.

Well, that doesn't fix the problem. It should work with 0 seconds between rounds...
