Update: Cutechess-cli 0.1.6
- Complete games are not played from opening books. It's still a good idea to limit book depth with the -bookdepth option if you use a really deep book (or PGN file as a book).
- If an engine becomes unresponsive (doesn't reply to the "ping" or "isready" command), it's terminated.
- If an engine doesn't quit after the "quit" command, it's terminated forcefully.
- Fix a serious race condition on Windows. If you've gotten "engine failed to respond to ping" warnings, timeouts, etc. it was likely because of this bug.
