I've been thoroughly testing my engine and she's at ~2300 elo! Through this process I've realized that most of my evaluation terms besides material/PSQT/bishop pair bonus have actually significantly harmed the performance of my engine, and I've been pulling my hair trying to figure out why. To me, my code logic is exactly identical to VICE's (and same for the semi and fully-open rook files bonus). What am I missing here?
Have a lovely rest of your day!
