[Bug-gnubg] 0ply question

[Massimiliano Maini]

Hi all,

just stumbled on this. Take the position below: all the moves have
cubeful equity of -1,
as next turn, O would double and X will have to drop, independently on
which move
X makes now.

Question: how can 0ply get this right, know that next cube decision is a D/P ?

I was under the impression that 0ply should only feed the resulting
position in the net,
get the cubeless numbers and translate them to cubeful using janowski's stuff.

Does 0ply checker take into account the next cube decision ?

MaX.
