Draw Bug #97

Closed danispringer closed 3 weeks ago

danispringer commented 1 year ago

Putting a KvsK+Q position on the board, with weaker king to move, and the only legal move being to capture the queen, which results in an immediate draw, has the app calculating forever... Even though as soon the next move is played it alerts "game over! draw", and after that it actually still allows making moves, and after every single move still alerts "game over, draw".

While if the position is, for example, a mate in 1, it quickly calculates till depth 245 (on my Mac at least, not sure what limits are), immediately saying it's M1, and not calculating for even a second more.

This does all feel like unexpected behavior...

Thanks

This is an artifact of the engine, not the app. Closing as won't fix.
