This tutorial is long, but it’s only because there are a lot of screenshots.
Also, consider that the length is half what it is if you follow half of instructions : for example if you only want the windows instructions.
All the pictures used for this tutorial are also available in google drive and on github /pictures/.
This tutorial is featuring PhoenixGo because it’s the ai i use : https://github.com/Tencent/PhoenixGo
But it wil work the same for all bots/ai (for
leela zero or other
bots you only need to change path to the executable, and
the --youraiarguments
)
For your convenience a clickable index is available, and at the top of every part of the tutorial, it is clickable so feel free to browse through it.
The current part of the index you are in is highlighted
Important: Submit Move Button
It is easy to accidentally misclick and play a move instead of your bot.
To avoid accidental misclicks while spectating a game from your bot account, go in Profile Settings.
Select "Submit-Move button" for all games:
Discord chat
come chat with all bot admins and people interested on OGS on the discord here :)

Come challenge my bot on OGS and let's have fun together, bot vs bot
