First of all I have to say that HB is very stable, safe and the most mature Bot out there.
But I'm afraid not all possibilities are made use of:
Since Silverfish AI is now the default AI of HB is it possible (keep in mind: I don't know much about developing and maintaining a product) to get more frequent Updates, i.e. the coder of Silverfish nearly pushes updates with fixes, tweaks and new features daily to his github and HB is only getting updated roughly every 3 weeks.
Furthermore PLEASE let us make use of the mulligan.txt. I created one and HB accepts it outputting "read mulligan.txt" but nothing happens. So i did a bit of code reading and the mulligan.txt is implemented inside the silverfish folder of HB but the DefaultRoutine just doesn't make use of it. I can't see why you would as a developer disable this awesome feature because setting up a custom mulligan simply can't hurt the way the bot plays but improve its winrate even more.
Last but not least: Silverfish as an external process. I know it has to be specially compiled to work with HB and is complicated but it would allow more calculations in less time and therefore in most cases would allow a higher winrate because the bot is able to simulate and evaluate more possible boards.
This sounds like a harsh thread but it's whining on a high level *first world problems*. I do not want to attack any of the developers/forum admins but to give constructive critisim to evolve the bot even more.
Please if some admin reads this, is it possible to get an ETA for any new features?
