Description Dave S. 2020-05-02 17:17:19 UTC

When I start up the game, I get a repeated game out of a set of 5 or 6 that I've just played.  I don't know how to get it to give me more alternatives.  I'm tired of playing the same 5 or 6 games over and over.

Version shows as 1.10+ #25, which isn't in your list.

The KDE version doesn't show in the Shisen-Sho dialog box.  I am running openSUSE Leap 15.1.

Hi,

Thank you for your report.

I just tried it on my machine with the same version of KShisen and the first 20 games were different.

Can you please tell us your settings found at:
Settings -> Configure Shisen-Sho... -> General

Thanks

Thanks for the reply.

I configured the game on my computer the same as yours and still cannot reproduce the problem.

To be clear. Every time you start the game, it is started with one out of a hand full of boards? Does that also happen if you press "New" in the tool bar repeatedly?

Comment 4 Frederik Schwarzer 2020-05-03 14:42:49 UTC

Can you also try to run the command

    QT_LOGGING_RULES="kshisen=true" kshisen

from the command line and paste its output here?

The audio stuff in the output is unrelated, meaning, not in the scope of KShisen.
The KShisen-related line is alright.

Looking at the code I cannot see how this could happen. KRandomSequence is used to shuffle the tiles.

Umm, you don't happen to have an AMD Ryzen 300, do you? There was a bug regarding randomness a few months ago. Just guessing around.

Would you be able to make a short video of your game where you press New about 20 times?

Comment 7 Dave S. 2020-05-03 18:41:12 UTC

It doesn't seem to happen when I hit the "New" button.  Thanks. I'll use 
that from now on.
