I found the problem, when the engine stop searching because it reaches maximum depth and receive ponderhit from the gui, the best move is not set.

I will try to release a new version in 2020.

Hi Patrice, I'm getting illegal moves in Arena when the game is about to end (and cheese is about to lose badly). I played several games Vs. RubyChess 1.6 (which is waaaay stronger and almost always wins) and when the game is about to end and cheese is left with very few pieces, Arena will say "ill...

I would LOVE to have a command something like "elo 1500" and suddenly Crafty would play like the average 1500 player. Easy to say. Very difficult to do and avoid the pitfalls above.

Cheese use UCI_Elo and UCI_LimitStrength options.

Thanks Graham.

I've never concerned myself with perft in my game programs before, but is it supposed to detect checkmates in order to avoid playing past fools mates? I was wondering if perft 7 could be used to enumerate all the shortest mates in shogi. There are 29 mate positions at depth 7 : nodes = 15 086 269 6...

Siyam v0.46 perft 1 and 2 results:

Same results for me.

I would like to find time to make a Shogi and Xiangqi engine from my move genenerator.
