Go Cheater (need a real name?)

Quick Start Instructions

First, clone the repository on your local machine, go into the folder, and then do a basic install with setup.py:

git clone https://github.com/jamespinkerton/go_cheater
cd go_cheater
python setup.py install

Basic Troubleshooting Tip

Depending on how permissions are setup on your machine, you may need to use sudo with setup.py install. If you do, you will then need to make sure the leelaz executable (go_cheater/leela-zero-0.17/leelaz) can be executed from your current user without sudo privledges.

First Execution

After it has been successfully installed, try to run it on the sample SGF file provided with the following basic command (within go_cheater):

python main.py -s sample.sgf -p 100
