This problem is known for months.

what is the reason that you did not care to fix it?
It seems to me something simple.

I am talking only about a productive fix and not talking about optimal time
management for fisher time control and I think that the problem of using time in
the best way is not a simple problem.

Is there something that I miss?
The only explanation that I can think about is that maybe you lost the source
code of Chess Tiger15.
