This let's you analyse many of your games at once with an engine, thereby scoring each move and finding mistakes.

When you have a list of games, as in a database, you can choose Utilities / Mass analysis to bring up the main window:

General settings

Main window of mass analysis

Most settings here are self-explanatory. Some points to mention:

  • Duration of engine analysis: set this to zero for unlimited analysis until your target Depth is reached.
  • Depth: how many half-moves (plies) do you want to look ahead when analysing moves
  • Number of moves evaluated by engine (MultiPV): How many lines do you want your engine to calculate - the Default settings means that many lines will be evaluated and that it will potentially take a long time to reach the depth you want. If you only care about the very best line, set MultiPV to 1. You can also experiment with 3 and 5.
  • Only player moves: when you make trainings (under "Wrong moves"), put your username here - otherwise trainings are generated from both sides of the game.

Here you can create trainings from your mistakes - this is a great feature. See Find best move for an explanation.
