Amoeba 2.8

Post by abulmo2 »

Amoeba version 2.8 is available here:
https://github.com/abulmo/amoeba/releases/tag/v2.8
I have not been able to enhance Amoeba by a big margin from version 2.7, but I am going to move to a new location and I will not be able to work on Amoeba for a while; so I prefer to release it now. Whatever :
- Search has been slightly enhance (better see cutoff in qs, avoiding some blunders ; verification search enabling depth tuned, hash table bucket size tuned).
- Evaluation is more complete: bishops are now also evaluated according to their square color, and the pawn square color occupation and the potential promotion square color.
- Some code cleaning and speed enhancement.
