Re: [gnugo-devel] you stepped on a bug

The whole process is automated (I connect to a GnuGo GTP client)

Thanks for the solution to the problem -- I will give it a shot.

Do you enter the moves manually or is it automated?

The problem with this game is that it's played on a 21x21 board. You
can solve this problem by increasing MAX_BOARD from 19 to 21 in
engine/board.h and recompile.

However, even if the board is too large, there's no good reason to
crash over the fact when loading a game record. We should change this
to give a more controlled error message.

Thanks for the report.
