Teki 2 released

Post by mkchan » Thu Mar 29, 2018 6:41 pm

Should be very slightly above Teki 1 in rating if any at all in single threaded mode.

Added:
GPL -> MIT licensing
Lazy SMP + lockless hashing
Fischer Random Chess (Chess960)
Pondering
Contempt
Syzygy EGTB
Partial search (aspiration window fails) reporting

MultiPV is next in the pipeline.

Find it here: https://github.com/Mk-Chan/Teki/releases/tag/v2.0

It's mostly a feature release (not much if any at all elo change) so it's fine I guess. The plan wasn't to improve strength for Teki but I'll see as I add more stuff to it like levels

Huge blunder on my part. I forgot to actually vary the depth between threads when lazily SMP-ing :oops:. I fixed that and reuploaded the releases for anyone interested

Whatever you're doing - keep doing it Manik.

WyldChess is a fantastic engine, with such a unique dynamic style, yet still not too strong to play against. Teki is great too.
Check my site for engine reviews and other chess stuff :)

Oh, ChessGUI reports an illegal move :( Will have to investigate.

I'm afraid not:

Illegal move (bestmove e3e2) by Teki 2 in position 8/8/2k5/2q5/8/8/4R3/3K4 b - - 0 60 = 8/8/2k5/2q5/8/8/4R3/3K4 b - - 0 60

I can't seem to reproduce it with just the FEN. Do you have the logs by any chance?
