I click the "new" button to start a new match. Made sure "Manual Dice" was selected. I clicked the modify player button on the new match box. I set player 0 as a human and player 1 as a bot. I click the "Ok" button. Now I am back at the New match window. AT this point of course you do NOT click "GNUBG Backgammon vs Human" as you want to retain the settings you just made. "Current player settings" is what it should be at and what it should have been set to when you clicked okay from the modify player settings screen. With that being said. I click "Ok" and select a set of red dice for me (the human). I am then able to play the humans moves. Which is what should happen. The only thing I can think of is that after you modified the player settings and hit "Ok" you went back and clicked "GNUBG Backgammon vs Human". Doing that will make the human player 1 and the bot player 0 (which undoes the changes you just made) I'm also assuming you are using the latest version 20121023? You cna find out by going to the Help Menu, About GNUBG, build Info. The version is on the top line. -- Michael Petch GNU Backgammon Developer OpenPGP FingerPrint=D81C 6A0D 987E 7DA5 3219 6715 466A 2ACE 5CAE 3304 _______________________________________________ Bug-gnubg mailing list Bug-gnubg@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnubg
