Select moves according to their weights in the book. If false the
move with the highest weight is selected.
- BookLearn (default: false)
- Record learning information in the opening book. Naturally this
- requires the opening book to be writable.
+ BookRandom (default: true)
+ Select moves according to their weights in the book. If false the
+ move with the highest weight is selected.
+
+ BookDepth (default: 256)
+ Stop using the book after this number of moves.
+
+ BookTreshold (default: 5)
+ Do not play moves with a weight (probability) lower than this (in
+ per mil).
UseNice (default: false)
Run the engine at nice level 5, or "NiceValue" if it set. On some
Work arounds are identical to options except that they should be used
only when necessary. Their purpose is to try to hide problems with
- various software (not just engines). The default value is always cor-
- rect for bug-free software.
+ various software (not just engines).
IMPORTANT: Any of these work arounds might be removed in future ver-
sions of PolyGlot. You are strongly recommended to contact the author
to the way kibitzing is implemented, KibitzMove is disabled in that
case.
+ WbWorkArounds (default: true)
+ The intention of these options is to provide work arounds for
+ xboard/winboard bugs should they arise. This one decapitalizes the
+ word Draw in options that contain this word. Some versions of
+ xboard/winboard contain a bug which causes such options to be
+ interpreted as draw claims by the engine.
+
+ Engines that send options with "Draw" in their name are Rybka and
+ HIARCS.
+
+ WbWorkArounds2 (default: false)
+ Old version of Winboard clear the engine output window at depth 1.
+ With this work around PG will send info lines at depth >=2. This
+ may or may not improve the display.
