[D] 3r3k/3r1P1p/pp1Nn3/2pp4/7Q/6R1/Pq4PP/5RK1 w - - 0 1 Even when I limit extensions to 2 !!! (instead of 1), no explosion occurs. Positive side effect is I see this mate then at ply 3 (instead of 5). My extensions are then nLocalExt = 0; MultiVariant->nExt[nPly] = 0; if (ChsStrct->extCheck[nPly]) { nCounters.nExtCheck++; nLocalExt += 400; } if ((nPly >= 2)&&(ChsStrct->extCheck[nPly-2])&&(ChsStrct->extCheck[nPly])) { nCounters.nDoubleCheck++; nLocalExt += 200; } if ((nPly)&&(ChsStrct->extCapture[nPly-1])) { if (ChsStrct->extCapture[nPly] == 2) { nCounters.nExtRecap++; nLocalExt += 260; } } if (mate_threat) nLocalExt += 400; if (ChsStrct->extOneMove[nPly]) nLocalExt += 400; if (ChsStrct->extPromo[nPly]) { nCounters.nExtPromo++; nLocalExt += 400; } if (ChsStrct->goodMoves[nPly] == 1) nLocalExt += 120; else if (ChsStrct->goodMoves[nPly] == 2) nLocalExt += 80; else if (ChsStrct->goodMoves[nPly] == 3) nLocalExt += 40; nLocalExt += 5*ChsStrct->extPawnPush[nPly]; if ((nPly)&&(ChsStrct->extCapture[nPly-1])) { if (ChsStrct->extCapture[nPly] == 1) { nCounters.nExtRecap++; nLocalExt += 160; } } if ((nPly >= 2) && ((MultiVariant->megaMove[nPly-1]-MultiVariant->megaMove[nPly-2]) > PAWNVALUE) && ((MultiVariant->megaMove[nPly-1]-MultiVariant->megaMove[nPly-2]) < 2*PAWNVALUE)) { nCounters.nExtMegaMove3++; nLocalExt += 60; } if (nPly >= 2) { if ((MultiVariant->megaMove[nPly-1]-MultiVariant->megaMove[nPly-2]) > 3*PAWNVALUE) { nCounters.nExtMegaMove1++; nLocalExt += 180; } else if ((MultiVariant->megaMove[nPly-1]-MultiVariant->megaMove[nPly-2]) > 2*PAWNVALUE) { nCounters.nExtMegaMove2++; nLocalExt += 120; } } nLocalExt /= 400; if (nLocalExt < 0) nLocalExt = 0; nLocalExt = min(2, nLocalExt); MultiVariant->nExt[nPly] = nLocalExt; 400 pts = 1 ply I have just increased 1 reply from 300 to 400, still no explosion. Store your extensions locally at the nodes!! That is the key.
