Big thanks to Mars2030 and the entire SMO TAS community for their incredible work on the Super Mario Odyssey TASes! Here are a few examples of what our program is capable of
Cap Kingdom Full TAS (note that motion controls are accomplished by an ingame mod that maps motion to button presses)

Keybinds

=: Add a virtual controller (The switch can only support 8 controllers maximum, going over this will crash.)
-: Remove a virtual controller
Q: Press A on the first virtual controller
W: Press L and R on each controller, sequentially
F1-F12: Run a script. By default, the program will run script1.txt if F1 is pressed, script2.txt if F2 is pressed, and so on. However, if more that 1 controller is attached, it will instead run multiplayer scripts. If F1 is pressed, it will run script1-1.txt on the first controller, script1-2.txt on the second controller, and so on.

Building from Source

1. Set up the required libraries
2. In the newly installed MSYS2, navigate to the folder you'd like to build this project in, either by opening MSYS in that directory or using the cd command to navigate
3. git clone https://github.com/hamhub7/tas-script.git (You may need to install git with pacman -S git)
4. cd tas-script
5. make lua to build and install Lua (You may need to install make with pacman -S make)
   
   TODO: switch-lua should be installable from pacman.
6. make
7. You should see a file called tas-script.nsp
   
   Optionally, you can choose to run make sd to make a convenient sd card package. The command should create a folder called sd that you can simply drag and drop the contents of onto your sd card.

The make process will fail for one of three reasons:

• You cloned a commit that doesn't compile (unlikely)
• Your folder is named something other than tas-script; solution is to ln -s tas-script.json config.json
• Your directory's full path has spaces in it (usually your account name)
