Randomization of FFVI AI scripts

Requires numpy, networkx, and pandas libraries at a minimum.

Run with:

python -m ai_scribe

Resources

This program makes use of the Cecilbot data files, which can be found on the Beyond Chaos discord and are maintained by Cecil188.

TODO

Batch 7

• Save filename with original + 'batch_number.seed_number'
• Fix the script shortening bug with adding 0xFF to disallowed_commands
• [.] Suppress Escape
  • Alternatively, could just reduce its weight
• [] Suppress target self
• [] Add 0xFC subflag byte to translate
• [] Check on Whelk randomization
  • Don't randomize alter formation?
• Cyan = "3" add him in the area
• [] Enlengthen the counter block programmatically
• [] See if you can manually increase early area MP pools
  • https://www.tales-cless.org/ff6hack/#part5
• [] separate out the main and counter block predicates
• remove same special events as BC
  • Fix Merchant event removal
  • [] Fix ZoneEater event removal
• randomize boss messages
• Fix Kefka alias mixup
• [] Command / message themes: take Cactuar and "build up" script monsters together
• [] Consider how much you really want to randomize 0xF5 in boss scripts
• [] See if there's a way to hide stronger skills behind conditionals more often

Batch 8

• Look at TunnelArmor in seed 0, did desperation attack
• Check graph connections when themes are added
• Tusker doesn't do all its attacks
• Probably need to have "fused" commands read on parsing
• theme only single enemy
• generate from template with theme
• Can we cluster "similar" command structures?
  • Graph similarity?
  • Cluster by edit distance: https://networkx.org/documentation/stable/reference/algorithms/generated/networkx.algorithms.similarity.graph_edit_distance.html#networkx.algorithms.similarity.graph_edit_distance
  • have from_template expand with similar scripts
