KingEnd is in the PieceSquareTable with values but...

You have a kingmiddle and KingEnd... Also the Evaluation section choses when to call the Endgame. What I don't understand is when the AI ever 'evaluates' using the 'kingEnd' numbers. Is this part currently being ignored? I'm thinking the Evaluation section (Evaluation.cs), when it changes the 'EndgamePhaseWeight' also needs to use the (KingEnd) (PieceSquareTable.cs).

You obviously got your code from here: https://www.adamberent.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/GuideToProgrammingChessEngine.pdf But missed the part with: if (endGamePhase) { score += KingTableEndGame[index]; }

@robertkjr3d In his new video I believe he states that he left it out explicitly because it made the program perform worse for a mysterious reason.
