KGS Wishlist

PageType: Path     Keywords: Online Go

The following are features and requests KGS users hope can one day be implemented in the server or client software (KGS or CGoban2).

If you are a first time user:

If you just used KGS for the first time, this page may be quite confusing to you. Your experience, however, is very valuable and you can help improve KGS by adding it to KGS First Time User Experience.

If you have used KGS already and have a wish:

Please enter your wish at the bottom of the appropriate section. Check thoroughly if the feature isn't already there. If you miss something rather obviously needed, better ask people at KGS first instead of adding a wish here. See KGS Plans for what wms plans to add in the future. Adding a wish to KGS Wishlist won't help anything if it's already about to get realized.

If you found a bug:

To point out a bug instead of a wish, go to KGS Bugs.

If you want a look in the future:

To see exactly what wms is working on right now, you can look at the KGS Status page. For more long term plans of wms, see KGS Plans.

wms: If I like an idea enough to decide that I will definitely implement it eventually (or if it is implemented already!), I will erase the entry here and add an entry to the status or plans page. So if I delete your entry, don't be mad! Just check those pages, it probably means that I really liked your idea. I will never remove an idea here because I do not like it.

UPDATE: I have moved my plans to a private bugzilla database. I may somebody make that database available for reading, but for now, I don't have a public future plans list.

Wishes that definitely will not be done will be moved to KGSWishlist/Rejected. Items added which are already there will be deleted immedately.

Solutions and work-arounds for difficulties and problems:

There is a page Cgoban problems and solutions (and collection of problems still without workaround) (not a bug page, not a wish list).

Currently, the entire KGS Wishlist is about to get restructured. You're more than welcome to contribute your ideas. See the ongoing discussion for details, and KGS Wishlist2 for what it's going to be.

Can anyone honestly say that they're still working on the restrucring? It's been many months, maybe even a year or more since I first saw the restrucure message and so far the wishlist2 page hasn't changed.

What's the relevancy of this page now that Cgoban3 is out? Can someone compare the wishlist to changes implemented in cgoban3?


Anonymous:DEBUG KGS3 is most URGENT. No need of new features (in 3.0.9) when imporant bugs are known since beginning of 3.0. Or is it needed to full up admins mail with bug report ?

Anonymous: please add some learning accosories at the server like in dashn where you can solve problems without needing to upload them


ridiculous?: how it is posible to set byo time 30sec/60moves? 2s on move make posibility to make many hight level account only by winning on time!!! Shouldn't be some 5s/move limit to RATED games?!
