Make squares 1d array #63

Closed Mauritz8 closed 10 months ago

Mauritz8 commented 10 months ago

Right now it's a 2d array but it would be simpler with a 1d array

I'm not sure about this tbh, I will implement bitboards at some point anyways

Mauritz8 commented 10 months ago

This will make implementing bitboards easier, so I will implement this.

Funnily enough this change altered the order of moves generated, so in some positions it prunes more positions than before, and in some it prunes less.
