(typed in place of my move) works for me.
David gave you the correct answer. There is no command that will completely halt a game in its tracks. This allows players to take back moves when mistakes are made or when they want to consider another line of play. But I suppose I could program Game Courier to accept nothing but take-back moves when a game is identified as drawn or won.
Thanks, But for some reason the draw command does not work in Monadchess. We have tried both draw and drawn. But it does not register as a drawn game.
The draw command will not do anything unless you have previously loaded a deck of cards with the load command. It is for drawing cards, not games. Here is why the drawn command did not work in Monadchess. Before the drawn command was used, the end command was entered. This works like the end command in BASIC. It ends the GAME Code program that Game Courier is running. Nothing else will register after this, not even other moves. For example, I moved back in this game just after the end command, entered 'e10-f10', and the King remained at e10. To draw your game, Namik will need to take back all moves after and including the end command, then use the drawn command.
BTW, the form for entering moves is no longer available in a game that has been ended with the resign, lost, won, or drawn commands. To continue such a game, you will need to bring it back to before one of these commands was used.
Fergus, thanks for that extra info. I saw that Namik had typed 'end' but did not realize it stopped additional commands. Best regards.
