Subject: Introduce attacks on space area
X-Git-Url: https://git.sesse.net/?p=stockfish;a=commitdiff_plain;h=dab66631e8e31b86f91475f4245c4be6b36a37de

Introduce attacks on space area

This patch introduces a small malus for every square in our space mask
that is attacked by enemy. The value of the malus is completely arbitrary
and is something we can tweak, also maybe we can gain some elo with tweaking
space threshold after this addition.
