How is that possible, don't you need the attack boards to do the eval? Is it a very simple eval perhaps? >For me makemove and generating all the attack tables cost time so I prefer to do >it only after verifying that the capture is good enough. Why not update the attack boards _before_ generating moves, then you have a fast makemove that you can do at the leaf too. I have no choice but to do the move before evaluation or else I would simply not evaluate the right position, you too must be doing some sort of move I think. >Guessing the evaluation of a capture without making it is easy(I can find easily >exact score with a simple evaluation but even after I do my evaluation more >comlicated I can get a good estimate for it based on material and use the >estimate to avoid generating unnecessary captures). > >Uri
