Subject: Extra time management safety
X-Git-Url: https://git.sesse.net/?p=stockfish;a=commitdiff_plain;h=aa392c366e6b52fa51b4be7965347d867a7f9804

Extra time management safety

Further increase safety against time losses. After this
change (tested on LittleBlitzer and cutechess) I had no
more time losses at 2" and 1"+0.02 TC both on Windows
and Linux on more than 10000 games.
