Issues Analyzing Handicap Games

[trunterzx]

I'm trying to analyze the below handicap game and two strange things are happening.

1. White seems to have a very high starting percentage even though komi is 0.5 and there are 3 handicaps.
2. Katago doesn't seem to recognise that the handicap stones are there and keeps trying to play on the spots where the stones are.

Any idea why this happens?
Is this an issue with the SGF file or there's something wrong with my settings?

I think this is not an issue in KataGo, and it is probably not an issue in the SGF file or settings either.

The issue is with the GUI program you're using (Lizzie?) failing to send the proper commands to KataGo. Some SGFs are fine, but some are not, and not just for handicap, but I think also I've seen more in general when dealing with certain kinds of stone placements that happen in the middle of the SGF file that aren't played by normal moves, or when dealing with the PL[] tag that indicates the player to move, at least in the past I noticed Lizzie has problems sometimes and doesn't tell the bot the correct stones or player to move. Please submit an issue with Lizzie (https://github.com/featurecat/lizzie).

Got it. Thanks! I was wondering whether it's an issue with Lizzie too.
