Ahh I see, I forgot to disable it for variants not supported in the new map type, just a sec

Hmm, that's weird it does seem to work here. Which game ID is happening for you on, and does it fail with any error message or does it just not do anything?

Hmm, that makes sense.. I've made it so the icon right below the map on the dropdown UI opens the point and click UI, instead of opening the large map (which seems redundant at this point), so this should let advanced players use the dropdown UI but open the point and click UI easily I'm not totally...

I often hear about the sandbox feature on backstabbr, but I've never really understood the appear / utility. It'd be pretty easy to do, but would people find it useful? What do people use it for?

Just thinking ahead a bit, there's obviously several more important things on the todo list

Well.. are those the only things that you can't do via the point and click UI? If so I might as well bit the bullet and add them to the point and click UI

The point and click UI is no longer beta, and is the new default for non-variant games. If you prefer the legacy/variant UI it will always be supported, and you can change your default setting in your account settings (Account > Site settings) Any issues / feedback please post below. Note also sever...

Hmm, looks like you left the game before it started. If you check your notices: "You've left WGL_1.1 before it started, and have been returned your bet of 5D."

There is something not right about seeing an AI send the message "Nah I'm gonna kill you".

Oh trust me.. that made it through the filter The AI says the darndest things that don't make it through. jmo would ban an unfiltered cicero in a heartbeat!

Interested to see how you go now; I think I've matched it up to the exact config they referred to in that paper but let's see That's the old Fairbot alright! Knows what moves I'm gonna make before I do. I'm not quite dead yet, but it's a struggle to stay afloat :sick: https://webdiplomacy.net/board...

Looks like you knew more than its opening. This and other data are leading me to doubt my original conclusion about the new AI. I don't see how a sophisticated AI on the level of DORA gets smoked like that. Or like this: https://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=550545#gamePanel https://webdiplomac...

Doh, same time as before, I wonder what happened to stop games processing for 10 minutes. I'll look into this next week during the next dev cycle, it said 4AM WST ~= 2000 on the 21st UTC

Hmm, interesting. Really like that we can start playing with the bot difficulties now. Will try to see what other FvA options there are for some clues about the opening, worst case scenario I'll reach out to the FAIR team but they're pretty hard to get hold of

FYI the AvF bot is currently down, going to replace with the DORA configuration over the weekend That's great news, Kestas. I'm already looking forward to my thrashing(s) at DORA's hands! Well let's not count our chickens.. but I'm running the new config now, interested to see if you notice a diffe...

Apologies I've continued game processing, thanks for posting

Kestas, I don't think Fairbot2 is the same AI as the old (2021-22) Fairbot (now "FB"). There's the opening. Fairbot2 has played that Russian/Albanian opening in all 21 of its games as Austria. Even beyond that, it's not super-difficult to predict Fairbot2's moves and outguess it. FB was brutal on t...

FYI the FvA bot will be down for a few hours as I need to do some work I can only do on my Windows OS and currently I can only run the bots on Ubuntu. (Going to try to run in WSL on Windows now that I know how on Ubuntu) I've got a graphics card upgrade that was able to run searchbot, but even runni...

Hmm, it does render here and seems to be working. If you go open Developer tools and go to Console do you see any errors?

Ah great news, glad to hear it’s at least an improvement. Interested to hear if you think it’s definitely behaving differently or not over time, if so I can try to look into what I might be doing different. Interesting/concerning to hear it’s faster too.. I was not expecting that, I can’t think why ...
