Ok Graham, then everything is clear now! I didn´t consider the different time controls ... But to say the truth: I´m almost never playing with all these King settings - I only collect them. :) The main purpose of the King for me is in mate finding, and in this task it is really very good and fast. However therefor I´m using only its default settings, because I´m not sure if any of those dozens special settings would have an advantage - but maybe you (as ´CM setting expert´ :)) have a suggestion for me, which setting might enhance (i.e. speed-up) the King´s mate finding process? Regards, Franz.
