Play custom position against bot?
You have to go to the Analysis and set up a custom position, and then it gives the option to play against any bot, or the engine level bot.
Hey,
Sorry if this is answered, I couldn't find it in the forums. I have seen YT vids of people playing custom positions against bots, like playing Martin with only one pawn. But I don't know how to do that. If I want a custom board setup against a bot, how is that configured?

Anyone having an issue with this now ? Playing a custom position v a bot has been working for me for months but this week the option to choose a bot is not working. (Tried multiple browsers and devices )

This should be fixed now
This does not seem to be fully fixed... I can't select the Engine and change strength from 250 > it just reverts to first bot (have tried multiple browsers / devices). Any ideas? Thanks

Have you found a fix yet?
This bug is still there. Is there a fix in the works?
As far as I'm aware it works still.

This issue is still present.
Just so we are on the same page, this functionality is broken:
Analysis -> Make Moves -> user makes moves -> Practice vs Computer -> Change Bot.
This brings up a blank space on the right side of the chessboard with the following errors in the console:
"practice-beta.client.6cec0c4d.js:523 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'classification')

I confirmed this problem on multiple computers with multiple browsers and the issue was still present. I cleared data and cache and still had the same problem.
