Thanks for the upgrade to include engine vs engine matches! And keeping current with Stockfish 13. With the improved menu interface, and advanced options, c4a is running smoother than ever.

Can't complain stock-fish moves instantly it's a challenge if I had to criticize this app maybe the board be changed or there could be a certain style board we get to choose but that's being picky really love this app been playing for years now.

Love this feature, setting the autoplay interval in ms. But in many other respects it is bad. In particular annoying are board markers that cannot be disabled. Sometimes it crashes when loading a pgn. While viewing a game, it would often automatically jump to the end, and have to rewind it back. The controls are not handy.

On good way but maintenace required. f.e. Anotations are not displayed in moves window, but in pgn which is not practicable. Then sometime variations on for example move no. 15 are wrongly placed after move no.17 or similar. If You may fix these it would be great. btw, how to remove those red dots which mark the square from piece was moved??? thanks, I wish You good luck, and continue this project.

It is a nice app with almost all the components needed for a serious player. My only comment about the app is it needs a ability to put graphical colored arrows and squares (green,yellow and blue). It will help chess players for a greater analysis. I am looking forward to it. Thanks!
