4 games won !!
but papy999 was not there and champagne didn't play at his full power

I realized that I am not good when the pattern generates hundreds of millons puzzles
I've to find a way to manage this . champagne suggested using filtering on used rules ? but is this available in his new software ?

I will pause for next games and try the new software of champagne as papy999 suggested

So 1to9only : you will have free hands

Hi Robbie,

If you are using Windows, I have no problem to share the .exe and informations about the process that you could apply.
The sources are now on line in github in the last status, but the easiest is surely to get directly the .exe and the commands to use.


I am not sure to understand what you mean by "filtering on used rules" but I filter most of the puzzles created. In the data base I have only 4 millions puzzles for the last game, but I am sure that I produced more than 100 millions of them and rated all of them totally or partly with my last clone

And I'll continue to test the code in the new game, I am free the first 2 weeks of October.

I play on my travel laptop. It has an old i7, but to avoid heating problems, I limit the load to 4 cores.
