The button is inactive for me, so I am not able to practice a custom position against a bot. Does anyone know if I am doing something wrong?

When I try to do this, it keeps making it a 3200 Maximum bot. EDIT: Literally 2 sec after making this post, i found the button to change the computer... Silly me.

This is still bugged at least for me. I can get the custom position and start play from there but I cant edit the bot strength which is fixed to 3200. The edit icon that is supposed to be to the right of the bot strength as shown in the support faq is missing.

hello, Im having some problems. I went to learn+analysis; but when I setup a custom position I didn't see a button to play against any bots. may I have some assistance?
underneath the "next move" buttons, you will see 5 symbols on the bottom right. The one in the middle appears to be a target, and if you hover over that, you see "practice with computer." Click that button, and then you will be sent to a new link with that match against the max engine. Again, look at the symbols on the bottom right. The second one is a robot face, which when clicked, allows you to change the bot.
I just figured this out today be looking at this forum

It seems still bugged to me. I can set up the position and select the bot to play against. After my first move the bot simply does nothing.

Playing a custom position against a bot is a great way to analyze specific ideas, test unusual setups, or practice tricky endgames. It lets you focus on positions you actually struggle with instead of starting from the standard opening every time. Many platforms now support this feature, so you can load a position, choose a bot strength, and train exactly what you need.
