Re: [Scid-users] Making Scid Annotate to a Certain Depth

[Steven <ste...@ya...>]

Hi Steve

I got an error with "sc_pos analyze" in my testing.

This command is still in analysis.tcl, but has been removed from tkscid.cpp. It's a known bug that hasn't been fixed.
(You can probably reinsert sc_pos_analyze yourself).

It's a good hack i think ;> I managed to accidentally remove the "continue" command which should still be there.

So i can't really continue testing. My hack will probably have to deal with issues at near mate situations too. 11 or 12 is probably a good depth, and of course this can be made configurable. Maybe i'll code it myself properly one day as it makes more sense than a fixed time search.

Thanks.
