New in XuanXuanGo Demo 7.6 (Feb 22, 2012)
- Significant improvements of score estimator. Now XuanXuanGo can recognize "Semedori", or "forced capture". New version can also recognize weak points. All red-marked points in following figure can only be recognized by XuanXuanGo 7.6, these points cannot form territory and must be fixed. If the board status is as following, after you press "Score Estimator" button, for some reason, the left 4 white stones are not judged as dead, but XuanXuanGo let user manually change the stone's status, so you just need to click the 4 white stones to mark them as dead. These 4 stones are causing "Semedori"
