Automatically save PGN in engine v. engine game.

Open trumptonshire opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Request uchess feature to permit automatic saving of PGN output in engine v. engine games, similar to that of cutechess-cli.

For example: .\cutechess-cli -tournament gauntlet -concurrency 1 -pgnout lc0-stockfish-1.pgn -engine conf=lc0 -engine conf=stockfish -each proto=uci ponder tc=10+1 -openings file=openings-6ply-1000.pgn -repeat -recover -rounds 100 -games 2 | tee ./lc0-stockfish-1.txt

During a engine v engine game, it is currently not possible to enter any commands into the interactive shell. Only pressing ENTER for the next move is permitted.

This request makes sense. Would the ability to simple run the "save" command during engine v. engine games satisfy the use case?

Yes please! Being able to save during an engine v engine game, either within the UI or from a command line parameter would be great!

Cool, got it. I'll see about adding these changes during the next arc of work on this project.
