Hi all,

Here, Aice 0.95 wanted to play 14) Ke8xh8

It seems to be a castling bug.

Salut Arnaud,

I send 15 games with this problem to Anastasios.
He answer me he will fix it soon in 0.96.

Amicalement,
Patrick

First tournament in UEL by Aice 0.95 is here

This bug affects UCI mode only. I forget to delete a line in my code and AICE sends castle moves ala FRC-UCI (eg e1h1 instead of e1g1). I'll release the bug-fixed version later tonight. Thanks for reporting this.
