I am unable to reproduce this at all. When I change the engine options they stay changed,, whether I exit HCE or start another engine and go back to a previous one.
Can those who have seen the issue please indicate what platform (PC or Mac) and version you are using and are you changing the options via the configure current engine icon (analysis explorer) or via preferences->engines tab.
Does this happen with HIARCS engines or other engines, please indicate engine.
Also if you can give precise steps how you produce this that would be very useful.

Hi, Thanks Mark for response, windows vista 64bit i7 950 cpu
I'm changing the options via the configure current engine icon (analysis explorer) it stays at 4 threads for komodo 5.1r2 from engine options tab but resets to 1 thread in analysis explorer after total shut down of pc for a while. I will try on another pc later windows 7 and get back to you thanks again.
P.s it would help if Komodo team had set there engine up to auto detect threads mind.

Hi Marc,
I have Windows 7 Intel core i5 4 threads and here are the tests :
IF i change parameters of one or several engines using Analysis Explorer icon ONLY, seem ALL is well when i restart HCE BUT when i change only one paramater in only one engine ( test made for Komodo where i changed number of threads and then Deep Hiarcs where i changed simply AutoSave PGN to false ) using preferences->engines tab , ALL other engines return to paramaters by default ( not necessary to leave HCE, it is immediate when i consult paramaters on Analysis Explorer !
Hope it help....

Following my tests yes !Mark Uniacke wrote:So it seems all it working using Analysis Explorer to configure the engines, but using preferences->engines tab is broken.
Broken is perhaps not the word BUT the fact to change parameters of one engine using preferences put the other ones to parameters by default....

So it seems all it working using Analysis Explorer to configure the engines, but using preferences->engines tab is broken.
It is the other way round with mine analysis explorer to configure is where my bug is. Thanks

The same problem exists in HCE 1.5.1 for Mac. There is about a 10% chance that changing engine settings from Preferences > Engines will stick and not change its own and other engine settings back to defaults. And no chance that changing settings from New Engine Match will stick. The engine match feature is very hard to use because of this bug.
(The main parameter I change is Threads. It would be helpful if this could be a common parameter, like Hash.)
