New Raven Release - Raven 1.30

It's been a long time since I've made a Raven release, but I just fixed an enormous bug which warrants its own release.

The only change is that I have fixed a bug with global variables which caused a major issue with move generation, causing Raven to not generate any double pawn push moves. This is now fixed and Raven can now play double pawn push moves.

This has led to an increase of approximately 300 Elo in self-play.

Thank you for testing Raven, and I look forward to seeing how Raven does in the upcoming Amateur Series.

Hi Steve,

It's surprising how some little bug can cause a major problem. I am very glad you have found it, looking forward to testing it (within a couple of days).
