Go up one level in this thread



Hi chap:
In the last years I have posted here almost exactly the very same idea, twice or
more times, even using the same word as you: modules. And the answer has been
always the same: it cannot be done. Or it has been partially done. But more
frequently the answer has been none. Zero. Silence.
As you, I am convinced that IT IS the idea. In one of those post I argued that
that is what a good player does: first to see what is relevant, then go to
calculations with specific criteria. If an attack is the core, then you think in
terms of sacrifices, etc. If not, then another modules comes to the task.
Of course there is another and more satisfactory alternative than you and me
could consider: we made bingo and half a dozen programmers, without saying
nothing, are working on it.
I even has some idea that in fact one program is following that path. Oh, not
because of me or you, but probably because the idea is in the air. Latent new
paradigm somebody could say..  :-)
