Hi,

Currently i'am using a piecelist to keep track of the locations of the pieces in
my 0x88 based program. Iám thinking about removing this list and replacing it by
a bitboard to keep track of the piecelocations of white pieces and black pieces.
I'am wondering of anybody else does this (i think some one will) and if this is
a good improvement to spees up my engine which is terrably slow. I have good
expierences with other bitboards in my program. I already use bitboard to do the
pawn evaluations and i'am thinkin about gradually removing the 0x88 stuff to
replace it with bitboards

any help appreciated


Regards

Jan Willem
