Macondo can solve endgames and 1-in-the-bag pre-endgames, +including very complex ones which Quackle's built-in solver can't handle. + +To install Quackondo, go to the [Releases](https://github.com/pommicket/Quackondo/releases) page. + +To use Macondo inside of Quackle, click on the 'Macondo' tab (next to 'Settings' on the left). You can then check the +"Use Macondo for 'Simulate'" button, and click simulate (after generating choices) to see which move Macondo prefers. +You can also solve (pre-)endgames, provided that the tile bag is sufficiently empty by clicking the Solve button in the Macondo tab. + +**There may be bugs!** Please report them here: <https://github.com/pommicket/Quackondo/issues>. Ideally include +an explanation of what you were doing that caused the bug, a GCG file of the game, and the output from Macondo +(available at the bottom of the 'Macondo' tab). + +License +----------------- See LICENSE in this directory.
