Yes. In the Behting study it worked with the test for queen because of the material balance ( two knights are better than one rook). But in other positions my program promoted to a rook :-) I think there is a position in the Albillo test with solution Bg4 where this happened. 8/6p1/7k/7B/6PK/2p2P2/8/8 w - - ; bm g5+; id "VA81" 8/8/8/5Bp1/7k/8/4pPKP/8 w - - ; bm Bg4; id "VA82" Roland
