The current alpha-beta implementation is fairly simple, and we've definitely got some improvements planned that are likely to improve its performance -- the most obvious of which is a Transposition Table. We're already computing Zobrist hashes, just didn't get around to using them for a TT yet.I am glad to hear that there are improvements coming. For right now, I am finding Ludii's playing strength too weak. I matched up Ludii against Zillions in the literal symbol of Ludii, Surukarta and Zillions, but not easily as it did at chess. (I like the Surukarta board as a symbol).
It is hard to match Ludii against Zillions directly by just entering moves because the game board is aligned differently, but I played against both programs and I found Zillions to be a greater challenge.
Taikyoku Shogi is not implemented in Ludii, so I can't compare, but Ludii locked up after 6 moves in regular Shogi which is not a good sign.
