These utilities include:
- Battlefield (deprecated, development continues here)
- Data generator for selftests
- Test position set for BattleField
- SoFGameSet utilities
This project is mostly written in Pascal, as it relies on core libraries of Chess 256. These libraries were taken from the source code of Chess 256 and slightly modified.
On Debian/Ubuntu, you need to install the following packages:
fpc (>= 3.0.4)lcl-units (>= 2.0.0)lcl-utils (>= 2.0.0)python3 (>= 3.7)
NOTE: Pascal/Lazarus version of Battlefield is deprecated and will no longer receive updates. The utility has been rewritten in Go and is now located here. To get the latest version, you can use the following command:
$ go install github.com/alex65536/day20/cmd/bfield@latest
This small tool generates the positions for self-tests. To compile and run it, use
$ cd selftest_data_create
$ lazbuild SelftestDataCreate.lpi
$ cd bin
$ ./selftest_data_create >boards.fen
The resulting boards.fen will be the same as boards.fen which is used for self-tests in
SoFCheck repository.
This is not a utility, but a set of positions on which the engine evaluation function is tested. These positions can be used with BattleField.
This is a set of utilities to work with SoFGameSet format. These utilities are written in Python.
