but I have never used this functionality, so I thought I'd give it a try. I
have a question though. In your explanation, how would SCID know which lines
are good and which are bad. From the help file I see :
Allow only best moves will treat lower rated moves as error. The rating of
a line is given by NAG values.
How can I give "ratings" mentioned here to a line.
Thanks
