And a final thing which is rather hard. But if you can please add the customizable value for the joker. HG has proposed the ratio of the sum of squares of the piece value with the piece values. I think some coefficients are good to be in place. Something like (a1p1^2+a2p2^2+...+anpn^2)/(b1p1+b2p2+...+bnpn). where n is the number of piece types and a1,...,an and b1,...,bn are float coefficients. One utility of the coefficients is when imitating a colourbound piece as the joker is not actually colourbound. I know this takes time, so if you can... Good luck Greg!
