Yes, the answer is that there is no gtp command available that defines whether handicap stones are also compensated or by how much.
Just like there's no GTP command to define the ruleset. This compensation is 0 in japanese rules, N in chinese rules, N-1 in AGA rules, etc. So it seems more or less clearly defined by the ruleset used. CGOS 9x9 uses a modified Tromp-Taylor right ? What does this ruleset say about such compensation ? If it says nothing, let's just choose between N and N-1 (since a compensation is logical when area scoring is used), and add it to the set of input parameters that the operators have to pass "off-line" (out of the GTP stream). -- nando _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
