Tweak the connected[] array value for pawns on rank 5
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
A recent tuning session by Jerry Donald Watson suggested that the
value for the pawns on the fifth rank in the connected[] array were
a little bit too high in master. We lower here this value from 75 to 65.
