But as I said, I don't know what to do about that! If you modify the score to account for that you in a feedback loop, you would change the root score. If a system could be worked out I believe there would be many opportunities based on things going on in the tree.


I have thought about this at lenght, for instance it is well known that starting from a winning position evaluation increases with depth in an almost monotonic way simply because, being a winning position if both players play "well" the winning one accumulates advantage with each move, this translates in the evaluation to go up after ID loop. Unfortunatly I am (still) not able to code this in something useful, but I think that a kind of feedback on root eval based not only on evaluation at ply n, but at ply n-1, ..., n-m could be really a source of big potential in ELO terms for who is able to exploit it.

One idea I have experimented is counting "clear advantages" and then add a bonus to score based on the number and weights.

The basic idea, if you have a good passer in the midgame, your mobility is superior, your king is safe while having some pressure on your opponent king then you have all the ingredients for a won game. While one clear advantage does not justify an add score bonus, 2 and 3, 4, 5 certainly do. Something like:

int table[] = { 0, 0, 50, 100, 300, 500, 900, ........ };
score=score + table [counter] * weight;
