This is a major new Eubos release.

  • The engine now supports multi-threaded execution
  • The evaluation function is improved:
    • King safety now takes account of king placement on open lines, that are exploitable by the opponent
    • Piece mobility is improved following removal of a premature optimisation
  • The quiescence search is improved:
    • It no longer searches checks, which caused a branch explosion issue, highlighted by multithreaded mode
    • A defect in setting the PAT score is corrected

Please consider using the batch file to invoke Eubos, I have tweaked the JVM configuration slightly to suit Eubos, this tweak is applied by the batch file as a command line switch to Java. Thanks to the developers of JITWatch for that excellent tool :)
