Small change to the MAME sensorboard device: last board position is now saved on exit and reloaded on next start.
The chessengine plugin will need to 'press' reset to get the starting position if it doesn't already do so.
Hmm? I don't understand - so the sensorboard has now its own 'nvram'?
But this would only be useful, if I exit an engine and restart the same engine again - when starting any other engine the previously saved position would be invalid of course.
And even with the same engine this would only work, if this engine has a 'nvram' too, and automatically restores the last position.
I'm not sure if this is really a good idea (despite of that it would require a lot of changes, e.g. in almost all plugins) - won't it be better to just use 'Save / Load State' in MESSUI instead of this new 'feature', if anyone wants to continue an aborted game?
