Date: Wed May 15 16:15:15 2024 +0200 Timestamp: 1715782515 Add extra bonus to pawn history for a move that caused a fail low Basically the same idea as it is for continuation/main history, but it has some tweaks. 1) it has * 2 multiplier for bonus instead of full/half bonus - for whatever reason this seems to work better; 2) attempts with this type of big bonuses scaled somewhat poorly (or were unlucky at longer time controls), but after measuring the fact that average value of pawn history in LMR after adding this bonuses increased by substantial number (for multiplier 1,5 it increased by smth like 400~ from 8192 cap) attempts were made to make default pawn history negative to compensate it - and version with multiplier 2 and initial fill value -900 passed.

Date: Thu May 9 08:42:56 2024 +0200 Timestamp: 1715236976 Fix nodestime 1. The current time management system utilizes limits.inc and limits.time, which can represent either milliseconds or node count, depending on whether the nodestime option is active. There have been several modifications which brought Elo gain for typical uses (i.e. real-time matches), however some of these changes overlooked such distinction. This patch adjusts constants and multiplication/division to more accurately simulate real TC conditions when nodestime is used. 2. The advance_nodes_time function has a bug that can extend the time limit when availableNodes reaches exact zero. This patch fixes the bug by initializing the variable to -1 and make sure it does not go below zero. 3. elapsed_time function is newly introduced to print PV in the UCI output based on real time. This makes PV output more consistent with the behavior of trivial use cases. closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/5186 No functional changes see source |

Date: Thu May 9 08:26:35 2024 +0200 Timestamp: 1715235995 Tweak reduction formula based on depth The idea came to me by checking for trends from the megafauzi tunes, since the values of the divisor for this specific formula were as follows: stc: 15990 mtc: 16117 ltc: 14805 vltc: 12719 new vltc passed by Muzhen: 12076 This shows a clear trend related to time control, the higher it is, the lower the optimum value for the divisor seems to be. So I tried a simple formula, using educated guesses based on some calculations, tests show it works pretty fine, and it can still be further tuned at VLTC in the future to scale even better.
