Chess engine: Zagreus 1.1.0 (Windows and Linux)


Zagreus is a work in progress UCI Chess Engine. You can play against Zagreus on Lichess: https://lichess.org/@/Zagreus_Engine. You will also be able to find it's elo rating on there. At the time of writing this is around ~1800 rapid. 

Zagreus is a constantly changing engine with hopefully an increase in elo every update.

v.1.1.:
Proper MVV/LVA implementation
Changes to mobility evaluation
Improve performance of TT
Added a MovePicker to avoid unnecessary sorting. Pretty big performance boost.
Fixed Transposition Table not being used at all. It was also not implemented correctly
Fixed PV move sorting
Fixed multiple evaluation bugs
Fixed endgame PSTs not being used in the endgame.
