In Response To: Rollout: Bearing in with no contact (Timothy Chow)

The database Sconyers shows on his site DOES have cube location data. But again, I'm still not sure if the position(s) you show are in the DB because you have checkers outside the homeboard.

Similar programs I've seen revert to (inexact) calculations when their DB's don't have the exact position (sometimes because their DB's don't have enough checkers, or because there are checkers outside the HB).

I'm not discouraging you from writing the program you envision, but it might be worth finding out if it already exists. Based on the work of Sconyers and others, I doubt it will be a light (timewise) project, but you probably know more about that than I do.
