Go up one level in this thread


Another thing you can try is,
adding a limitation not to nullmove when your beta value has a mating value.
(both
positive or negative) When I started to experiment with nullmove this solved
mating-
problems I got from nullmove, for me. Then later, when everything runs stable,
you
can remove (or just remove the one that tells not to nullmove when it's the
losing
side, the other one is usefull anyway) it again. (Then you know it's not
something
else)

So, something like
if (beta>9000) or (beta<-9000) then don't nullmove

Hope you succeed in solving it.
