After a long break...

16 Jun 2022

after a long break

(made a snake clone in c++ during this time, check it out!)

  • still coding move generation
  • moved hard-coded numbers to Enums (Direction and Player)
  • refactored sliding moves (Q, B, R)
  • added pgn output (ugly but atleast lichess can parse)
  • now engine generates moves from both sides, yay!
  • separated main.cpp into several header and cpp files

Not all of them are working yet :') 3 am movelist.reserve(40) : doing this made move generation ~1.5x faster! Now reserving in all vectors. modularized move generation added  get_threats  function
