Is it possible to save a game midway and then continue

[n0madsky]

Hello

I'm using GTP.sh to play against a friend at the moment (mostly because we're curious of how a Go AI works). Is there a way to pause the game and continue at a later time? Mostly because we're both busy and only can spare an hour playing this. Otherwise, how hard do you think it is to implement this?

load_sgf command?

Look at printsgf and loadsgf at http://www.gnu.org/software/gnugo/gnugo_19.html. Not sure if these particular GTP commands are implemented.

If you look in the source code: https://github.com/pytorch/ELF/blob/113aba73ec0bc9d60bdb00b3c439bc60fecabc89/scripts/elfgames/go/console_lib.py

Nope, no printsgf/loadsgf commands

So far I've managed to keep track of the list of moves and play them back, perhaps it's worth a contribution.

or you can use gogui to load elf and save sgf

You are correct that these commands are not implemented. We will put it on our list, and in the meantime we welcome any contributions!
