I assume that more than one Chessbase employee reads this forum on >a daily basis, so some of our ideas might filter through. Time between games Let the user be able to set the time between unload and reload (for external UCI/WB engines) so that an engine that has just finished playing a tourney game and has to play immediately again is guaranteed to have enough time for cleanup/unload/reload/initialize/wait_for_commands. The present unchangeable few milliseconds are sometime not enough, so engine misses first commands of second game and communication breaks down. I e-mailed this problem to the ChessBase guys years ago (for WB), they said they would fix it. While waiting till today, my engine expresses its contempt with a message, when thus hindered from playing. /Matthias.
