Hi Dad!

Thanks for your post. Indeed, I am a bit confused.

One of my hangups with implementing rotated bitboards is that I need (for my
peculiar low-NPS approach) to evaluate square control for all 64 squares of the
board, whether occupied or not, for which I do indeed need to keep track of Xray
attackers as well as direct attackers. Obviously with "beyond[][]" and
first/last selective identifiers this is no too difficult. How might this be
accelerated with rotated bitboards?

I want to be converted, but I'm skeptical...

Sine cera,

-Kristo.
