I was testing the Android build of PlentyChess 6.0.15 JA and noticed what seems to be a bug. The engine played a self-match at 1+1 time control, and the moves looked highly irregular and uncharacteristic for its strength.
The early queen sortie, repeated odd pawn pushes, and self-blocking moves don’t match the engine’s usual style. I suspect the Android compilation might not be functioning correctly (possibly a parameter or NNUE load issue), since the PC build doesn’t produce similar play.
Could you check if there’s an initialization or NNUE loading problem in the Android version of 6.0.15 JA?
Thanks for your work on PlentyChess — it’s normally a great engine!

Hi Joseph,
I can confirm. It's playing badly for me too. I'll take a look.

Your last compile is from 240319 (maybe you can try to make it again faster?) DefenChess by Can Cetin, Dogac Eldenk, Turkey https://github.com/cetincan0/Defenchess/
A very quiet month of August, the programmers are working on engines, 200 Elo stronger as Stockfish ... you know
