Fix MCTS win detection #60

Open skotz opened 3 years ago

skotz commented 3 years ago

There's a critical bug somewhere in the MCTS simulation's win detection. I think it has something to do with detecting the last player to move. Must be getting confused with the alternating turn order interspersed with growth moves.

Maybe in addition to seeing if the state's winner is the last player to actively move, it should also consider both growth moves. So if blue won, then a win is recorded for the node if it's for the player who just placed a piece or the result of either growth move.
