Subject: check extention explosion

i have got this problem here, check extention explodes in the endgame pawns +
rook or queen, all these open files make it possible to check endlessly. how to
restrict this? i added smth like this: if ply > depthtoreach + 4 then dont
extend, where depthtoreach is the depth im searching to. but this is ofcourse
not very good, because i still get those check extentions where its impossible
to mate anyway. how did u solve this problem? an idea would be to store info
into transposition table when not to extend, but how to find that out?
