UCI default parameter crash #7

Closed BimmerBass closed 3 years ago

BimmerBass commented 3 years ago

When the engine boots, it does exactly as is stated in the UCI-protocol (http://wbec-ridderkerk.nl/html/UCIProtocol.html), and if a "go" is given, the engine will crash:

Initialized 16MB (524288 entries)  transposition table.
Resized transposition table to 16MB (524288 entries).

This is not necessarily a bug or an error, but it is unwanted behaviour, and should be fixed.

This should be easy to do by setting a "go" command without any elaboration equal to "go infinite" while also just loading the starting position when booting. This won't take any time which in turn won't "disobey" the protocol

This has now been fixed as of the latest commit.
