But Take SafePath (where pawns can go safely) and use that to calculate pawndomination. LEFTATT = (SafePath >> 9) & ~FILEA etc. You can use that to see if centre squares can be dominated, or to see if you can potentially "break" the opponents pawnformation somewhere (if a potential pawn attacks an opponent pawn at a square not potentially dominated by the opponent). Again: not sure it is worth anything, just playing. Bas.
