Unexpcted Error

[ZYKsslm]

When I choose Player vs. Computer -> Medium -> White, it occurred an error.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "game/script.rpy", line 53, in script
    call screen chess(fen, player_color, movetime, depth)

it seems that the game only runs at the first time. Then it occurrs the error whatever you choose.

Hi @ZYKsslm. I think you are using the wrong version of this chess engine. Your log says you are running Ren'Py 8 but in your log there is also this:

  File "game/00-chess-engine/chess_displayable.rpy", line 270, in __init__
    self.chess_subprocess.stdin.write('#'.join(['fen', fen, '\n']))
TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'

There's no chess_subprocess in the newest code on master. Closing the issue.
