Can XG's out-of-the-box default settings be changed so that they match generally agreed settings?

Bob Sometimes XG resigns a single game when it can still lose a gammon. That is annoying. And then after you decline that resignation it won't resign for the rest of the game when it really should.

XG resign threshold is 0.0005. So it can resign single if there is still 0.05% of gammon. You are free to refuse the resignation, but if you do do Xg will not resign for the rest of that game (he's pissed).

If the gammon does not matter (DMP for instance), XG will resign a single game if there is less than 10% gammon chances (and gammon if there are less than 10% backgammon chances).

To be complete XG does not resign if any player have 2 checkers or less.

If you have seen a position where the above is not right please send me the position.

the resign threshold is a necessity due to the fact the NN will not return a perfect 100% for lost gammon position. Reducing the threshold will result in XG almost never resigning.
