Hello Robert, I doubt you want to place the authors of Deflection (current name) as KarinsDad and DontKnow. ;) Well, our program doesn't exactly use bitboards if by bitboards you mean the entire 64 squares represented in a 64 bit structure for various things. Instead, my program currently uses 8 bit bitranks, bitfiles, and bitdiagonals to do bit manipulations. And, of course, these bit structures are within larger structures. However, the bit manipulation is currently done at the byte level as opposed to the 64 bit level (I only did it this way to keep table sizes small and because it appeared to be simpler to implement the first time out). So, my question is: Do you mean by bitboards a complete 64 bit representation, or does 32 bit, 16 bit, and 8 bit representations qualify as well? Thanks, KarinsDad :)
