Pedone 1.2

Post by Fabio Gobbato »

New release of my engine. It's about 60ELO stronger and now has an option for limit the strength.

Changes:
Bugs fixes
Aspiration window
Tune reductions
Tune IID conditions
Improved pawn shield evaluation
Non linear formula for mobility
Limit engine strength
Don't try null move at high depths in an expected all node
Razoring at depth 4

Ups ...
Pedone is back in League 2 ...

Must update my site ...
Now the updates comes ... my systems have to work.

Programmers do a great job.
No time, must added the information.

A good day.
With Cheng we can forget Lake Placed 1980 ... running fight ...
The Pedone programmer saw that and thinking ... Frank you must have my engine on your bill too.

So many bills (regular bills in mailbox), each day ...
:-(

But this bill (new engine) I like much more ...
The World is fully OK today.

Pedone 1.2 was born ...

Best
Frank

Sorry Fabio, but may I insist in you trying another name for your program?
It sound very ugly in Spanish.
Something liker "farter"

I know, but still has not a good smell in Spanish....
There are so many beautiful Italian words...

"Strella", by example....

"Strella" doesn't sound good in Danish, Fern ...

Shouldn't we leave the names to the programs authors - atleast untill they ask for advice ?

I like this name, I don't know how could I call it. As Marco said it's the italian word for pawn. The pawn is the weaker piece but it's also the piece that can change a game.
I like that this idea is in the engine name.
