Chess engine: Milady 4.36




Milady - winboard engines, Author: Yves Lejeail
Rating CEDR=1861

In this version, evaluation is simple and rewritten from scratch. It takes into account material, material imbalance, king attack, passed pawn, control of cases, control of centre, development, double pawns,.. Most of all, the evaluation is smoothly normalized such that there are no jump in the evaluation. I completely removed all the cut-off based on Alpha or on Beta that were in the evaluation before. In addition, the analysis feature is improved and it can follows move input during move analysis. Framework 4 required to work.

v.4.36
- The whole programme has been optimized,
- Some features have been added such that Analysis continuation when the position is changed
- The evaluation has been rewritten, simplified, in such a way that the evaluation is more continuous with stage of the game. The discontinuity has been reduced, hopefully. 
- It is not so easy to improve a programme, I decided to avoid any changes based on tactical progress only, it was an error. The progress has to be measured by engine games, as we all know
