EDAutoMission

Automatically accepts missions of a type (This is a work in progress so expect bugs)

Installation

There are two ways to run the program: As a python script, or the built code. The raw python supports both command-line and gui control, while the built .exe only can be run through the gui.

For development/testing purposes:

1. Ensure Python 3 is installed
2. Clone the repo
3. Install Tesseract
   • It is recommended to install to the default path (C:/Program Files/Tesseract), however, if installing to a different drive, ensure that you install directly to the drive, i.e. to D:/Tesseract (where D: is the drive you are installing Tesseract to)
4. Install requirements (pip install -r requirements.txt)

Built GUI Version

1. Download the .exe file from the releases section
2. Install Tesseract
   • It is recommended to install to the default path (C:/Program Files/Tesseract), however, if installing to a different drive, ensure that you install directly to the drive, i.e. to D:/Tesseract (where D: is the drive you are installing Tesseract to)

How to use:

1. Dock and click starport services
2. Make sure mission board is selected (see image, below)
3. Go to the GUI or your terminal
4. Run the script (python main_ody.py for current features or python main.py for experimental branch), or click the go button on the GUI
5. (non-Windows only) Tab back to the game within 5 seconds

To prematurely exit the program:

1. Wait for the script to finish checking missions, if it is doing so
2. Alt tab back to the terminal or GUI
3. Manually interrupt the program (ctrl-c on most terminals), or click the exit button

Current Features

• Odyssey support through CLI (run as script)
• Automatically checks and accepts missions for Bertrandite, Gold, and Silver every 10 minutes
• 16:9 resolutions supported: 720p, 1080p, 2160p

Features in Testing

• Consolidate code in main.py
• All cockpit colours should work (when running main.py)
• All 16:9 resolutions should work (main.py)

Roadmap/Plans

(Subject to change, though if its possible by my knowledge it will be added)

• Have a GUI and standalone application
  • User input of Tesseract binary file path
  • User selection of Horizons/Odyssey
• Add configurations for missions of other commodities/types
• Horizons support (in progress)
• Extend support to aspect ratios other than 16:9 (in testing)
• Extend support to cockpit colors other than the default (in testing)
• Code ruggedization
  • Improve reliability of mse difference detection for exiting mission board
  • Improve reliability and simplicity of internal mission count
  • Remove hard coding of mission names and implement more generic detection
