Changes to ChessMind 0.80:
- better at tactics, this at the cost of lower search depth
- improvements in evaluation, does not sacrifice pawns without any reason as often as 0.80
- some more UCI options (explained in the readme file)
- improvements in time management
- smaller aspiration windows (also adjustable)
The strength should be around 2100 CCRL now (at least I hope so

it appears here that something is not right with this version. It comes straight out of book thinking it's over 2 pawns ahead in every game!
As a result, it's performing poorly as one would expect in this tournament I'm running:

The previous version was okay.

Yes I can confirm that. I am using ChessMind to test Redqueen and it appears that it is losing every game because of that. It seems like a problem in the evaluation function regarding dynamic terms, perhaps mobility or King safety. The engine sometimes evaluates equal positions to 1 or 2 pawns ahead, then when it starts losing material the score drops to something more realistic.
