akimwtk is a set of python scripts to access the state of the game while playing. This could be used ultimately to write a learning bot using genetic algorithms.
requirements
- Dega 1.16-pre1
- Python 2.5 (and dev headers/tools)
dega compilation
In order to compile pydega.so, you need to type:
make pydega.so
If you are using a 64-bit architecture, add "-fPIC" to the OPTFLAGS variable at the top of the Makefile and add Z80=z80jb to switch to the Mame Z80 core (no assembly).
memory.py
This script is meant to be run from dega-1.16pre1. It will spawn the memory editor with the current view of the level (blocks, money, etc.).
