Re: [Bug-gnubg] question about GNU Backgammon

Hi Robert,

 

I don’t think you can automatically get a hint. At one time the analysis would run automatically in the background, which would have accomplished much the same thing. However, this feature was dropped years ago.

 

The closest you can get is to enable Tutor mode. This will give you a message very time you make a mistake (configurable).

 

I’ve never tried setting the threshold to 0 or a negative value. This might make the tutor pop up after every play.

 

I hope this helps.

Ian

Subject: [Bug-gnubg] question about GNU Backgammon

 

Hello GNU team,

 

 

I have a question about how to change the settings in GNU Backgammon: Is it possible to always and automatically get a hint after one's own dice have been rolled?

 

 

Best regards,

 

Robert
