Optional Commands

AmazonsGUI will work with all programs that can understand basic ATP commands. These ATP commands are very similar to basic GTP commands.

Required Commands

It is required that the Amazon program can handle the following commands:

  • boardsize, clear_board (boardsize)
  • play (black, white) (Queen_From_Postion-Queen_To_Position&Arrow_Position)
  • amazongui-setup {B, W, A} {Positon} {B, W, A} {Positon} {B, W, A} {Positon} ....
    Where B - Black Queen Piece, W - White Queen Piece, A - Arrow Piece

Optional Commands

The following other commands are used by AmazonGui:

  • name
  • list_commands (help)
  • version
  • quit

If the Amazon program does not understand them, you will still be able to play games, but you cannot use all of the functionality of AmazonsGui.
