Renju

Post by kordo »

I want to use GoWrite for renju. Renju rules are very different from go rule, but the game records are very similar, sgf file. Playing renju, you never "capture" stones. How is it possible to disable capturing ? A surrounded stones (or stones) should not disappear in a renju recording.

This is not something I would be considering any time soon.

In principle the change may look small.
But the change requires knowing rules in code that right now does not have any information except the board. So it will unavoidably lead to continuous stream of problems popping up in many different places. Each problem would require work to find and fix it. So it would require quite a bit tinkering in total. For time being I cannot invest the effort.
