winboard bug?
Posted: 18 Jul 2007, 18:01winboard 4.2.6 has shown a strange bug...
I watched someone alternatively playing 1 0, then 60 30 games, and in the 60 30 games crafty was moving instantly. Looked at the log, and saw that crafty was _way_ behind on time, thinking it had less than 60 seconds left. Then I noticed on my xboard display I was using to watch (not the one I was using to play crafty on) the time was way off for crafty. A look at the log files showed that winboard was simply hopelessly confused. After the 1 0 game, as soon as the 60 30 game started, crafty was given 60 seconds on its clock, not 60 minutes. And no increment was applied. But the opponent's clock was going normally.
Has anyone seen xboard do this in the past???
