To interrupt the computing time and force a computer move instantly. The computer will

To change sides during a game. In this case you have to lift the opponent’s King off the board
briefly, e.g. if you play white, wait until it is your turn. Lift the black King off the board
briefly. The computer will now compute a move for white, and you will play the black from
now on.
•
To let the computer play against itself, which might be of special interest at a certain point
during the game or for learning purposes. Every time you activate GO the computer calculates
for the side to move. All moves will be computed according to the set playing levels. For
example if you are playing white:
- Wait until it is your turn.
- Lift the black King off the board briefly. The computer now plays white and you only
have to make the move for the unit.
- Now lift the white King off the board briefly. This will prompt the computer to calculate a
move for black and you will only have to make the move for the computer. And so on…
