I tried the following, but was not able to reproduce the recursive solve at the end of solving Ruud's Clueless Special #4a.I wish I could remember now whether I invoked the recursive solver first before trying the "deduce all moves". I think I may have. I have since learned that JSudoku doesn't reset the solvers and other selections (for instance, uniqueness test) unless you repaste the puzzle code.

Instead of "reset grid", substitute "undo recursively solve" and see what happens. |

Instead of "reset grid", substitute "undo recursively solve" and see what happens. Thanks, I am now able to reproduce what you get, using the following sequence of commands:
When using the same sequence of commands with Glyn Samurai #3A, it seems that no Recursive Solve is automatically done. If I after the above sequence of commands, do an additional Recursive Solve, "2 Recursively Solve" are listed. To me this is a bug, which J-C to my knowledge has corrected for all other solvers in version 1.5b1 and later. Up to and including version 1.4b2 of JSudoku this was a bug with all solvers. I noticed when for instance making a puzzle, which required one Skyscraper, and if I after the Skyscraper was deployed the first time undid and redid it 4 times, 5 Skyscraper would be listed in the "Techniques used" log. |

Post subject: | List with cloaked techniques, digit(s) and grid(s) |
For the Regular Master level puzzles I normally state the advanced technique(s) required to solve the puzzle. And for each advanced technique I specify the grid(s) it should be deployed in and the digit(s) it is on as cloaked text. As an example, here Regular Samurai #45C : C) Master (16 Intersection, 2 Naked Pair, 1 XY-Chain on 1 with 6 cells in g3, 1 Y-Wing on 1 with {19} pincers in g3). Select to view details. Sometimes I would prefer not to reveal neither the number of advanced techniques required, nor the advanced techniques themselves. At the same time if the puzzle solver gets stuck, I want to provide the opportunity to reveal each technique, the grid(s) it should be deployed in, the digit(s) it is on and optionally further information, to allow the puzzle solver to continue. Here is how I will do this in the future: C) Master: Ultra Hard Hidden Text: |

Well congrats on Norway winning the Eurovision this year. The song isn't exactly my favourite genre but it does sound nice. The dancers were very acrobatic too. |

THANKS!!!I did not watch the show ... not my kind of entertainment. I spent yesterday evening coding on my sudoku stuff. I didn't know that the show was broadcasted in Australia. Many Norwegians are probably double happy today, since May 17 is the Norwegian Independence and Constitution Day. |

And that song has won with a record number of votes in history. And that song is in English too, which is not that often for winning songs in the contest.

Didn't watch much of this year's EuroVision. Prefer the British commentary (more scathing) from past years.Sometimes I swear that udosuk spies on me!! Cheers Ed |
