αδμετε: A new engine.

[Gabor Szots]

Thank you for sticking with it to build though.

I had to. Up to this point there was only a Linux binary and I am on Windows.

But I'm going to use your binary as it is indeed faster than my compile. And 10 times smaller.

Mostly just time control improvements.
~40 Elo improvement vs itself.

Windows and Linux binaries are available.

admete 1.5.0

I finally got around to automating the parameter tuning.
Big improvements over 1.4.0.

admete 1.4.1

I finally got around to automating the parameter tuning.
Big improvements over 1.4.0.

https://github.com/orbita2d/admete/releases/tag/v1.4.1

Hello,

How big? I expected only a little because of the very minor version number change.

~ +100 elo
It's a minor version number because it's all just tuning really, the code hasn't changed too much other than tidying. I wasn't sure if it should be 1.4.1 or 1.5.0 because of the big jump. Now you're making me doubt that decision :p

Edit, I've convinced myself the other way now. Give me 5 and I'll make is 1.5.0.

Fine but if it turns out to be only +50 you won't rename it back to 1.4.1, will you?

How about 1.5.-1?
