Hi, I was trying to test the move generator of the new engine that I am writing and was making use of crafty to fix its bugs. Looks like there could be a potential bug with crafty itself in perft mode. I tried trace 5 perft5 and I get this sequence in the crafty output : Nf3 Nc6 e4 Nd4 Ke1e2 [D] r1bqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/3nP3/5N2/PPPP1PPP/RNBQKB1R w KQkq - 0 3 The move Ke2 is illegal - moves into check. My understanding was that these moves should not figure out in perft. Am I correct here ? If yes , then were can I get more acccurate perft generator - which can also show me the move trace in case I have to debug ? (This bug/feature in crafty makes it worthless for perft for me - the numbers are always wrong now - and so have to dig deeper to get actual count). Thanks in advance Mridul
