I update to version 135.
I'm checking ChessbrainVbNet V5.10 engine. When ponder is on always disconnect after a few moves (usually bellow 10).
I check the log and it says:
"tablebases initialized, 5 pieces, 145 WDL files found
initial tour load took 322 msec
white disconnects
invalid ponder move d6e5 for engine ChessbrainVbNet V5.10 (FEN r2qkbnr/pp4pp/2n5/4p3/4P3/7P/PP3PP1/RNBQK2R b KQ - 1 11)
white disconnects"
I think there is a bug in GUI because I check the engine with other gui's (arena 3.5.1, shredder 14) and plays ok

ok, turns out I can reproduce with 4.10
looks like it's non-compliant and reports bestmove when asked to ponder, but it should wait for stop or ponderhit

the GUI, however, should be able to handle such cases - looks like UCI pondering is broken in Myracle and I'll have to fix it, thanks for reporting
