[computer-go] IGS?
Hi, Does anyone know how to interface your go program to IGS? It is already on KGS and CGOS but would like to have it play on IGS as well.

Re: [computer-go] IGS?
I watched a game of your bot, and it still fills its own eyes, killing alive groups. I suggest you strictly forbid eye-filling moves until the bot is much stronger (I think it is needed in very few cases to kill groups). Also it plays many, many bad self-atari moves into the tiger mouth shape. If you evaluate positions and give them a score, these moves should receive a worse score. Do you have an account on KGS? (Human, not bot :) That said, I think you have enough testing opportunities on KGS and CGOS. It's probably not worth the hassle if IGS doesn't support normal GTP for bots. :p -ibd Am 05.09.2009 um 18:07 schrieb Folkert van Heusden: Hi, Does anyone know how to interface your go program to IGS?

It has checks for preventing placing stones in an eye. alive groups.

RE: [computer-go] IGS?
I wrote an IGS client. It's integrated into Many Faces. Since Many Faces can be a GTP server to your engine, you should be able to use Many Faces to play your engine against people on IGS. Or you can write your own IGS client. The IGS interface is not documented, but it's ASCII, so it's pretty easy to reverse engineer it. If you own Many Faces, the Internet Debug Console will show you all the IGS messages.
