Ok... I've included a few of Uwe's features/ideas in our Tournament window. In subversion you'll see there is now a tournament statusbar, the ability to use more than 12 engines, and great Carousel game scheduling... maybe a few othe minor changes too.
Uwe has also updated his version. It can now autosave tournament progress (in case of engine or operating system crash). It is available permanently in the patches directory of svn/source https://sourceforge.net/p/scidvspc/code/HEAD/tree/patches/comp.uwe Happy holidays, Steven On Wed, Nov 28, 2018 at 5:03 PM Steve A <stevena...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Everyone, > Uwe Klimmek has been messing with the tournament feature, > and has made some interesting changes.
