New features

play foreever

When setting "play_counter": -1, in the config.json playing do not stop.

Wait some seconds after each match

When setting play_delay, e.g. play_delay: 10, in the config.json a sleep is done after each match. The integer defines the wait time in seconds. play_delay: 0 means no sleep.

Stop playing when ranking is outside a defined border

When "play_inside_ranking_border": true is set in the config.json and a ranking border is defined: "ranking_border": [2800, 3000], playing stops when the ranking is below the first number and above the second number.

For the example [2800, 3000], playing stops when the ranking is 2799 or 3001 after playing a match. When only one direction should be limited:

• "ranking_border": [0, 3000] - stop only when the ranking is above 3000
• "ranking_border": [2800, 10000] - stop only when the ranking is below 2800. (a ranking of 10000 cannot be reached).

Play a random deck

When no deck is specified:
sm> play
a random deck is selected and played.

Show ranking

sm> ranking shows the current ranking of the player.

Reload config

sm> reload_config reads the changed config.json.
