InspectingSimulations

Here is a procedure to look at Fuego's playouts from a given game position:

1. set

uct_param_player max_games 100

or some similar small number

1. set

uct_param_search keep_games 1

uct_param_search lock_free 0

1. run a search from the position you want to analyze. I just click on the computer icon in [GoGui].
2. Uct Save Games, choose a name for the sgf file.
3. load this file
4. make sure to open Tools-Tree Viewer in [GoGui]. It will show the games. Replay a few of them. You can click around in the tree viewer to jump directly to a node.

By the way, for each playout you will see two "diamond shapes" - these are nodes that do not contain a move, just some text. The first one shows the thread and game number. The second one is at the boundary between the UCT tree and the playout. It shows the results of this playout.
