6 years agoRe-initialize PSQTs for each variant
Fabian Fichter [Fri, 28 Dec 2018 13:20:37 +0000]
Re-initialize PSQTs for each variant

This allows to consider the board size of the variant when initializing
the PSQTs, which fixes some issues with non-standard board sizes,
and reduces the differences between the normal and the large-board version.

No functional change for 8x8 variants.

Simplify time manager in search()

Remove the F[] array which I find unhelpful and rename `improvingFactor` to
`fallingEval` since larger values indicate a falling eval and more time use.

I realise a test was not strictly necessary, but I ran STC [-3,1] just to
check there are no foolish errors before creating the pull request:

http://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5bef3a0c0ebc595e0ae39c19

It was then suggested to clean the constants around `fallingEval`
to make it more clear this is a factor around ~1 that adjusts time
up or downwards depending on some conditions. We then ran a double
test with this simplification suggestion:
