I think that fruit has superior evaluation to most programs and I think that most of the gap between fruit2.1 and Movei is because of evaluation and not because of search. I will probably try to implement part of fruit's evaluation in Movei data structure and I expect big improvement from doing it(no copy and paste because Movei has different data structure and I also do not think that fruit's evaluation is perfect so I may do small changes to it and I believe that I have in Movei some productive knowledge that is not in fruit and this knowledge is not going to disappear). I already understood Fruit king shelter's evaluation, Fruit pawn storm evaluation and Fruit king attack evaluation and some other parts but I still did not try to understand big part of Fruit's evaluation. No promise when I will implement most of the knowledge that fruit has and Movei has not inside Movei(small part of it already implemented in a private version that play in WBEC) and I have other programming tasks that I want to do except it so I do not work on it in most of the days and even in the days that I work about it I do not work a lot of time about it.
