Go up one level in this thread


Thanks for the response, Ive been asking these questions for years with no luck.
It just makes sense to me to tweak these engines.  The parameters (of some) are
far too vast to not take notice.  While the human "eye" probably couldnt notice
a +/-10 point difference in king safety, everyone here knows it makes a
difference to the computers. So how did the programmers come up with the engine
"defaults"? Incrementally changing values one by one, and then conducting engine
matches? Seems too tedius. This just seemed like the logical place to ask such
questions. Forgive me for sounding like a bore for those in the "know".
