What exactly (for those of us not yet
involved with AI) is depth 5 or 6 at
Pentium 2, 266 MHtz? Thanks

Depth 5 and 6 when used correctly means
that the computer's AI analyses
serially all the moves that are
possible by both players only for the
next 5 or 6 moves. then it will select
the best move...
i'm not sure whether
viper means 5-6 computer moves or 5-6
moves including both players. (i
haven't yet checked whether the program
really does this :)
and...
I don't
really want to say it, but I beat this
AI quite easily. Probably not because
it's not functioning well enough, but
because it allows unpremoted checkers
to take the other players checkers if
they are behind it. I don't remeber
all the rules of checkers but I'm
pretty sure that's an illegal move.
When you click to take a piece behind
your unpremoted checker the computer's
checker dissapears and my piece remains
unmoved. Try it!
It's a great
program. Keep up the good work!!!

A NEW version is now avaliable this all
the bugs fixed (square are the right
colour, you cannot take backwards,
etc.) and a primative Alpha Beta
Pruning routine has been implemented!

Great work though looking through i
still don't understand how the A B
pruning has been implement (is it depth
first now?? or is it possible to use AB
prun. with breadth first??)
|

Beaten since 1st play ;) It does have a
very nice AI, congrats!
|

Very nice! Although it seems you can
take backwards on a double/triple jump,
etc..
It's the best Checkers I've seen
yet!

Its a great game! I was trying to make
this game for at least 2 weeks but
there are some problems in my AI. Would
you don't mind if I use some of your
AI.
