King saftey ->attack units -> safetyTable ?

Post by MahmoudUthman »

How should I determine the values of the safety table relative to the pieces value (material) and weights (attack units) ?

also aside from that are pawn shields considered only if the king is on it's original rank ? and how much penalty should be assigned relative to pieces value ?

You will have to determine this by experiment or by using automatic tuning.

But you can look at what I use:

and for the parameters:
