Re: new axolotl
Hi Necromancer, Thank you so much for taking the time! And thank you also for your really good ideas. How would you go about evaluating your King Safety and Passed Pawn eval? At the moment I mainly use the Strategic test suite, and some Texel Tuning. Many thanks again, and I will post some more prec...

Re: new axolotl
Hi Necromancer, thanks for the quick reply. Yes, unfortunately you will need at least Java 11 to run axolotl, which is easily available online : https://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk/11/ or https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk11-downloads-5066655.html I ran the STS suite at 5...

Max Threads / Hash size
Hi all, how do engines decide what the maximum number of allowed threads should be? I am limited to a 4 core machine, and using a large number of threads does not improve playing strength, and I do not know what would happen if my engine was run on something powerful. Same with hash sizes. So the qu...
