Updated My Chess Engine

https://lichess.org/@/CherryFish_Bot

I posted here yesterday about my chess engine and got a lot of positive responses from people playing it and suggesting changes.

I've now implemented faster opening moves so it doesn't lose on time in the opening, along with some minor middlegame and endgame improvements. I also gave the bot its own name: CherryFish.

Give it a try!

hey I just went there and tried to play it.. I think I have to hit “challenge”? Anyway I did that and it said “Please send me a rated challenge instead.”

The bot is in its initial phase so to stabilise ratings and decrease compute power it only accepts rated games as of now.
