Since you’re here...

... we have a small favour to ask. More people, like you, are reading and supporting our blog: "Chess Engines Diary". And unlike many other sites and blogs, we made the choice to keep our articles open for all, regardless of where they live or what they can afford to pay.

We hope you will consider supporting us today. We need your support to continue to exist, because good entries are more and more work time. Every reader contribution, however big or small, is so valuable. Support "Chess Engines Diary" even a small amount– and it only takes a minute. Thank you.

Chess engine: Walleye 1.5.2


Walleye
is a UCI-compatible engine written using the classical alpha-beta style AI. It supports loading board positions from arbitrary FEN strings, Unicode pretty printing to the console, and UCI communication logs to help with debugging.

Originally this project was meant as a first introduction to rust and chess programming, but it got a bit carried away.

v.1.5.2
Further reduced excess CPU usage
Fixed a bug related to capturing en passant
Some tweaks to the search, no major changes
Added check extension
Mate in X moves is now correctly reported in UCI rather than just a large negative or positive number
