Re: Score Indicator Not Working?

On my computer, the score bar works well. Did you see the cursor (the green rectangle on the left side of the board) moving? Typically, it moves clearly for unbalance games.

Re: Doubling number of games in my SuperBlitz editing banksiaplaying.jos

"Games per pair" is just a record, using when generating only, not affect to the current number of generated games.

I think the easiest way is to generate a new and similar tournament then merge it to the current one to have double games.

Re: MultiPV Display Bug

Thank for the feedback.

BSG has not supported MultiPV yet. It is a feature in my to-do list for a while. I will work with it soon.

If you/other people want a deep analysis, consider to use ECA feature.
