In the version of UChess I have, I do the same thing that Kong Sian does with lookahead, and I found one problem. If on lookahead you get a book move, thinking on opponents time, you need to set Sdepth to 0 and forget that lookahead worked, or things get confused, since the pgm will think you got some ply in the lookahead, put the fix in before you return from iop == 2 in search, to set Sdepth to 0. Also I found it NOT useful to keep thelookahead precalc unless Sdepth is >2 when you return in the iop == 2 clause. -Roger -------------------------------------------------------------- bix: ruzun NET: uzun@crash.cts.com
