ootAI

An experiment to create an AI that plays OoT Randomizers automatically, getting as many checks as possible in an efficient manner.

how does it work

This runs using the Lua Core fork of the Dolphin Emulator project. As of right now it only works on ROMs generated by the OoT Randomizer.

Eventually I'll have an explanation here on how it does pathfinding and memory reading, but I don't know how to do enough of that yet.

how to build

1. Install AmuletML.
2. Run amc compile main.ml --export -o build/oot/main.lua --lib /path/to/amulet/lib.
3. Copy ootAI.lua and the oot folder from build to your Sys/Scripts folder in Dolphin Lua Core.

You should now be able to start ootAI.lua from the Launch Script menu.
