I wanted to see what's new in Raid and I can't find anything. Only one code in the search was not taken from "Stockfish dev by Stefan Geschwentner" but the old line was kept. I don't know why I should use Raid? The author should (this is my opinion) tell people that Raid = Stockfish dev, and that the only thing implemented is the Polyglot book and the Sugar AI learning file. And this is not the author's own work, but copy & paste from SugaR AI. Compare yourself, I have attached both search.cpp files:

Raid v2.78i_X is 99,999% identical in search to Stockfish dev, Author: Stefan Geschwentner Date: Sun Oct 8. The only difference is in Step 20 (search.cpp) where RAID prefers an older Stockfish dev. entry, see at the bottom.
STOCKFISH DEV:

Simplify collection of bad moves for history updates.
Search.cpp: Changes in Step 20 changed (by S. Gschwentner).
SF Gschwentner:
// If the move is worse than some previously searched move, remember it, to update its stats later
if (move != bestMove && moveCount <= 32)
{
if (capture)
capturesSearched[captureCount++] = move;
else
quietsSearched[quietCount++] = move;
}
Raid v2.78i_X:
// If the move is worse than some previously searched move, remember it, to update its stats later
if (move != bestMove)
{
if (capture && captureCount < 32)
capturesSearched[captureCount++] = move;
else if (!capture && quietCount < 64)
quietsSearched[quietCount++] = move;
}
Stockfish dev. previous versions, identical with Raid Raid v2.78i_X:
// If the move is worse than some previously searched move, remember it, to update its stats later
- if (move != bestMove)
+ if (move != bestMove && moveCount <= 32)
{
- if (capture && captureCount < 32)
if (capture)
capturesSearched[captureCount++] = move;
- else if (!capture && quietCount < 64)
+ else
quietsSearched[quietCount++] = move;
Raid has changes in nnue, search, makefile, misc.cpp and misc.h
i dont know whats your deal, if you are looking for someone to push time with am not that person go to ALex. and if you dont know why you shoould use my engine, then dont use it. its designed for anyone who wants to use it. not PEOPLE LIKE YOU.
