In WAC.230, the main thing about the position is that you have to use the rook
to break the wall.  Otherwise, what will happen is that the defense can form an
impenetrable barrier.

Look in evaluate.c at the stuff between the #if/#endifs:

evaluate.c (     28): #if defined(DETECTDRAW)
evaluate.c (     53): #if defined(DETECTDRAW)
evaluate.c (   1180): #if defined(DETECTDRAW)
evaluate.c (   3728): #if defined(DETECTDRAW)
