- Add the necessary features to support TAS routes. In particular, handle a potential save and reset on each step on the world map, as well as at any save points.
-
Make the reading of data files much safer. It's not very relevant as long as I'm the only one writing data files, but it'd be a nice-to-have thing. Whether this means simply enforcing data types on the existing files or defining a more robust file format, I leave as an exercise to the reader.
-
Allow for a more computer-friendly JSON output format.
-
Add automatic twin seed resolutions. This requires computing multiple seeds in parallel and somehow deciding the best way to resolve the twin issues.
-
Allow for sequential encounter searches. The current code simply lumps them all into one bucket and ensures that the correct number of each is encountered, but doesn't enforce the ordering. No vanilla route would use this feature at this time, but it's possible a route for a romhack would. To be truly useful, it would also need to allow for specifying a new party after each fight.
-
Handle the extra penalty for single extra steps done at save points.
-
Handle the ability to take three extra steps in Cecil's room with only a two tile penalty. This is similar to the potential single extra step before entering Bab-il, which can be done with a one tile penalty, versus most single extra steps which require a 2 tile penalty.
-
See if some seeds could benefit from a save/reset cycle instead of endlessly pacing until they find the grind fight. The problem is that your reset seed is effectively random, so it'd be completely up to chance.
