This is auto-pass, a feature much requested on turn-based sites that do not have it. But then the players there are dependant on human opponents who might not move for a day or five, and coming to the game just to click "Okay, do nothing" is tedious.

Auto-pass against GnuBg would still be useful, even if not as drastic a tedium saver as above. It could have two option. 1) The basic "Keep passing until I can move", which sacrifices cube decisions that the player might want to make, and 2) "Pass until I can move or a cube decision is close", where "close" is some value to be determined and probably added to settings.

I don't like dancing on the bar while waiting to be able to play. When there's a forced move, there should be a command for the computer to instantly play my moves for me, like the "end game" feature, but only until I actually have a decision to make.

Going into the menus and turning on the automatic play features don't cut it because I have to either watch the animation go, which can take forever, or click-click-click-click-click-click to make it go faster.

My workaround is to hit the "end game" button, then go back through the moves list and figure out where the first place was where I would have had a choice to make. That's a really inelegant way of doing it, and one button could solve it, or even better, a feature that instantly plays forced moves. I don't need to see the computer play them out. I trust it not to cheat.

Thanks,

Stephen
