Hello,

The program attaches to fast-forwarded mGBA processes and sends them key presses. You can see the keys and timings here. If you wanted to use it for other hunts you'd change that code to send different key presses w/ appropriate timing.

I don't want to steer you wrong, though. I made this as a fun little proof of concept for sending keystrokes to other processes. The keys and timing and etc. depend on your computer and settings (#1). If you're looking to do this seriously you might want to look into tool-assisted speedruns or emulator scripting instead.
