Re:Show HN: I added autopilot to the lunar lander game by szhu on Friday March 10, 2023 @03:28AM (#35091949)
I really wanted to!

But unfortunately none of the lander's stats are exposed as global variables, so the only way I could do make the autopilot was by modifying the existing code. (My commits are actually broken down exactly like this: a commit to expose the necessary variables globally, and another to actually add the autopilot.)

I would also love to be able to play it in the original game though, so I made a PR! I think it would be cool for it to be able to be activated as an easter egg.
