Major bug in ChessGUI 0.185, 0.186, 0.187

[Matthias Gemuh]

ChessGUI 0.189 is out.

The logic simplifications introduced in ChessGUI 0.185/0.186 have now been cross-checked and every found bug fixed.
Only Caparandom chess has not yet been cross-checked.

I strongly recommend updating to this version.

Thanks for the update! Previously, you said to wait before rebuilding the book. Is this version ready? Thanks!

Hi king,

do you want to build those giant books again ?

1) Delete ChsGUI_Book.txt and the 2 books you created.
2) Setup GUI Remis Book creation (include testsuite creation if you like).
Limit ply count to maybe 30 for a remis book.
3) Create the GUI Remis Book (and testsuite ?) from pgn file.
A ChsGUI_Book.txt will be created, which you can later use to create a winning book.

I have not yet tested winning books to see whether they are correctly sorted.
If you create a winning book, don't tick "Last Pgn File". Then the book will be unsorted (and not usable yet) till I comfirm that ChessGUI is sorting correctly. Sorting a winning book is a separate lengthy task which can be accomplished later.
A winning book can be 98 plys deep.

Matthias.
