Go up one level in this thread


(sorry about this repost, i hit space by misstake).
This is a position where my engine plays black:

bRbNbB..bK....bR
bPbPbPbP..bPbPbP
..........bN....
........bQ......
wP..wP..........
........wPwN....
..wP..wQ..wPwPwP
wRwN....wKwB..wR

nodes: 690975 <= LOL!!

Notice that the White Knight is attacking the Black Queen.

Move List: (in order listed, last iteration)
Capture: Score: 1000003 move e5b2  <= LOSING
Capture: Score: 1000003 move e5h2  <= LOSING
Capture: Score: 1000003 move e5e3  <= LOSING
Score: 14 move e5e6 <= OK
Score: 14 move e8f8
Score: 13 move e5e4
Score: 1 move e8d8
Score: 0 move e5d6
.
.
.

and after this, i get bestmove = e5c5, thats move # 18 of 43 possible moves.
Maybe i should implement Killer Moves? Or maybe not always put the captures
first, losing captures are not good moves.. so...
