I did not know this and am grateful to have found >out. This is unpardonable for a top program to NOT have this. I reckon I, and >others, will have to test this on other programs from now on. charlie It is more easy to say that it should have underpromotion code then to do it. Amir Ban said that it is not a small change. I tested Junior5 in studies and found that it have also other tactical bugs(I am talking about cases that Junior can never see simple tactics that other programs have no problem to see). Fortunately Junior can practically play very well with these tactical bugs. I told amir ban about all the bugs that I found. I hope that he will be able to solve the problems but it is more easy to discover problems than to solve them. My version Junior5.4 suffers from most of the tactical bugs that I discovered in Junior5. I believe(based on my test games) that it is clearly better than Junior5 (the main change relative to Junior5 is in the evaluation function). Uri
