OverpoolSpeed is broken in Steamhammer 1.4.1

Today I discovered that Steamhammer’s OverpoolSpeed opening is broken in version 1.4.1. It was still correct in the previous version 1.4. I had been experimenting with an overpool +1 build similar to the one in Killerbot by Marian Devecka. Somehow a weak, unfinished version of the +1 build got into the distributed configuration file under the name of the overpool speed opening. It must have been a copy-paste slip or something.

It’s fixed for the next version, of course. With so many openings, how many others have gross mistakes? Few, I hope, but I know there are many that could benefit from refinement.

Jay - I thought you might enjoy this game due to the shear broken nature of it : http://www.openbw.com/replay-viewer/?rep=https://n00byedge.com/replays/RANDOMHAMMER/18394-RAND_TSCM.REP

Wow, both players are champion idiots from Idiot City, the capital of Disaster Planet. Then again, reasoning about the opponent’s pathing is... left for the future.

Idiot City is the only home any these bots have ever known :D
