Subversion Repositories Games.Chess Giants

; Chess engine configuration file for Chess Giants.

; Chess Giants is engine-agnostic, which means it can handle any CECP-compliant

; engine, and virtually any state-based engine that communicates using newline-

; terminated ASCII strings over standard IO (stdin/stdout). All it needs is to

; read this configuration file to learn how to talk to the engine, and how to

; interpret the engine's replies.

[commands]

; Special strings: some strings enclosed between ${...} are converted during

; the game to dynamic values. We call this "variables". Here is the list:

; ${MAX_CORES} -- will be expanded to the maximum number of CPU cores to use

; ${START_POS} -- will be expanded to the full FEN string of the start pos

; ${CURRENT_POS} -- will be expanded to the full FEN string of the current pos

; ${SEARCH_DEPTH} -- will be expanded to the maximum allowed search depth

; ${LAST_MOVE} -- will be expanded to the last move in long algebraic notation

; ${GAME_HISTORY} -- will be expanded to the game history in long algebraic

; command(s) to send to prepare the engine for a new game

new game = "uci;ucinewgame;setoption name Threads value ${MAX_CORES}"

; command(s) to send to setup a board (using a raw FEN string)

setup table from fen = "position fen ${CURRENT_POS}"

; command(s) to send to order the engine to start playing (when switching sides)

play = "position fen ${START_POS} moves ${GAME_HISTORY};go depth ${SEARCH_DEPTH}"

; command(s) to send to instruct the engine that its opponent played a move

move = "position fen ${START_POS} moves ${GAME_HISTORY};go depth ${SEARCH_DEPTH}"

; command(s) to send to order the engine to change its last move and force one

force move = ""

; command(s) to send to tell the chess engine to cleanup and quit. if unset,

; its process will be killed, but at the risk of not saving important data.

quit = "quit"
