The most important change in this release is Syzygy tablebases support.

Should be ~40-60 ELO stronger than Combusken 1.0.0.
This version is not working in my android 10 device (realme 5pro) and the previous version working well.
Do something please!
Thanks

I'm sorry for inconvenience. I thought that build compiled for Raspberry PI would be sufficient, but it is not the case.

I've added additional combusken-android-64 file, however unfortunately this build lacks syzygy support(syzygy-related uci commands are no-ops).

I don't get that code

Code: Select all

                kingDistance := Min(int(distanceBetween[fromId][whiteKingLocation]), int(distanceBetween[fromId][blackKingLocation]))
		if kingDistance >= 4 {
			score += distantKnight[kingDistance-4]
		}
distantKnight seems to be applied whereever the knights are

Now it is working for me in my android device.

I think "fromId" is the knight's location.

I've managed to compile Combusken on my phone, and version that supports syzygy is now on github.

I see some of your patches for 1.1 where inspired by my work for Ethereal, like the stacked passers code or the distant knights penalty. Nice ! I'm happy the ideas helped.

I hope you can keep on gaining elo, and find some original elo-gaining tricks of your own that could help other engines too. :)
Thank you! I hope that true.
