v1.5: Graphical updates, find alternatives, save results to sgf
Improvements
- A number of significant of graphical updates to analysis
- The next moves are shown as a dashed line around the move rather than a semi-transparent stone, as overlap with 'top moves' hints was confusing.
- If the next move is the top move, a dashed line with blue and the next player will be shown.
- Top moves are softer circles, and fade out for low (<25) visits. This should both make any borders clearer as well as make the board less overwhelming. The threshold can be configured in config.json (
low_visits
) but is not yet in the UI. - When viewing policy moves, 'top moves' are now hidden to avoid overlap.
- The next moves are shown as a dashed line around the move rather than a semi-transparent stone, as overlap with 'top moves' hints was confusing.
- A new analysis option, 'find alternative moves', has been added. This will do a 'fast visits' search on all current move options, as well as request a second query avoiding all current moves.
- The model and katago binary dropdowns now show a little description of the files you can select.
- A bug where downloaded katago versions didn't show up in the dropdown has been fixed.
- Resignation is now possible. This is mainly to allow people to have more complete SGF records.
- Game results are now stored in the SGF as long as the result (B+R, W+3.5, etc) is showing on top of the board.
- The rank estimator has been put away, as it was causing more confusion than anything and not actively being improved.
- Improved support for FoxWQ's incorrectly formatted SGF files, with extreme komi/weird handicap settings being converted to reasonable values when the SGF contains "AP[foxwq]"
- Rule set and komi are now shown in info on the first move.
Bug fixes:
- A bug where the first player was incorrect for 1-stone handicap games was fixed.
- A bug where katago kept running in the background on windows after the program closed has been fixed.
Installation
- Windows users can simply download and run the KaTrain.exe file attached, or download the .zip file and run the .exe in that (which is slightly faster)
- Linux and MacOS users can install using
pip install katrain
or follow instructions here.
Enjoy!
