Errors/bugs: - Pigeon only uses around 50% or less of available time (moves too fast) - Pigeon does not specify a promotion piece (Polyglot claimed illegal moves 7 times for this behaviour, set PromoteWorkaround = true for all other tests - corrected 1/7 results, because I did not remember that old option in the beginning, 6/7 results remained when the position was losing anyway.) - Pigeon gives too much bonus for unspecific passers (stopped or even weak passers) - Zotron does not consider stalemate (draws winning positions therefore sometimes)
