v4.1, July 2024
King safety and mobility evaluation modifications
Quiescence search when in check modifications
Better play in finals with pawns and 1 piece on each side
Pondering is always off for the moment. the code needs an update
In my testing Knightx 4.1 is about 50 Elo stronger than v4.0.

Re: Knightx 4.1 released
Hi,
Thanks for testing it. Regression tests and gauntlets indicate a little more than +50 elo but it should be less.
I have tried, among other things, to fix some defects that I could see in some games, like having a piece with no safe square to go. v4.0 sometimes repeated a position 3 times with a positive eval.
