Hello Uri, > >I do not think that the problem is inability and the problem may be that some >programmers simply do not care about it. As I said these positions are just some HINTS about what engines do in certain positions, as those postions were completly illegal. >Fixing problems like that is not an hard task for programmers. So why don't they do it then ? I will be happy when they at least don't accept this kind of positions. I am not asking for any retrograde analysis thing. I am asking for the rules to be put into engines. >Not accepting every illegal position is harder and seem to me impossible because >there are many cases like white king at b3 that is threated by 2 black rook from >b5 and a3 and you need to be careful not include white king at b1 that is >threated by 2 black rooks from b3 and a1 because it is possible by last move >b2xa1=Rook. > >Uri Best, Michael
