Chess engine: Willow 2.6

 

Willow - UCI engines
A chess engine I am currently working on, written in C (WORK IN PROGRESS)
Compiled in Windows, works on BanksiaGUI with limited UCI support right now.

v.2.6:
500 game test: +96 elo over bugfixed 2.5.1, +- 13.
Additions for Willow 2.6:
Added RFP
Improved LMR and null move pruning
Added mate distance pruning
Changed time management to make it less likely to time out

2.7 will be a full rewrite of Willow in bitboards. See you then!
