Molecule - new engine

[fkdosilovic]

Hey guys,

during the last 2.5 months I've been working on a chess engine. The result of my work is Molecule (https://github.com/fkdosilovic/molecule) . Any feedback is welcome, but I'm most interested in somewhat of a legal advice.

As you'll probably read in README file, whenever I would get stuck, I would consult a "Chess engine in C" youtube series on developing a chess engine. The result of that is that search part is basically identical to VICE's. Even though I did say in README file that Molecule is derivative of VICE (because of search part) , is it legal to use the code from VICE?

Cool! my engine it's also based on VICE, it's pure C99 but it's weaker, I wanted to start the search and eval from zero, the movegen it's bitboard and magic

I have windows and compiled your engine with g++ 6.1.0, but when

Code: Select all

uci
ucinewgame
go infinite 

the engine just crash

I didn't test it on Windows yet. I don't now where is the problem, but I'll definitely take a look. Thanks for the reply.
