I ported gnuchess 4 pl 60 and 4 pl 61 to the Amiga, gave it an intuition interface and call it UChess. I noticed that it would occasionaly play a BRAIN DEAD move as well, to fix the problem I redid the timing routines, but mainly what I did was in SelectMove, force UChess to have a HINT move in mind when it exits the main loop. Unless there is a draw or mate detected, UChess will not exit the selectmove main loop unless it has a valid HINT move in mind. Most of the brain dead moves have no response in mind, despite being thought out for many plys, and having high scores. this helped a lot in avoiding brain dead moves. -------------------------------------------------------------- bix: ruzun NET: uzun@crash.cts.com
