Getting Started

Prerequisites

• .NET 6.0 SDK or later.

How to Run

You can build the application as a self-contained executable for different platforms. This allows the application to run on machines without the .NET runtime installed.

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/MangkorN/RE4R-Treasure-Optimizer.git
   cd RE4R-Treasure-Optimizer

2. Publish the application as a self-contained executable:

   Replace {RID} with the Runtime Identifier (RID) for your target platform. Here are some common RIDs:

   • win-x64 for Windows 64-bit
   • linux-x64 for Linux 64-bit
   • osx-x64 for macOS Intel 64-bit
   • osx-arm64 for macOS Apple Silicon (M1/M2)

   dotnet publish -c Release -r {RID} --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true

   Examples:

   • Windows 64-bit:

     dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true

   • Linux 64-bit:

     dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64 --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true

   • macOS Intel:

     dotnet publish -c Release -r osx-x64 --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true

   • macOS Apple Silicon:

     dotnet publish -c Release -r osx-arm64 --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true

   This command will create a self-contained, single-file executable in the bin/Release/net6.0/{RID}/publish/ directory.

3. Run the application:

   Navigate to the publish directory:

   cd RE4R-Treasure-Optimizer/bin/Release/net6.0/{RID}/publish/

   • On Windows:

     RE4R-Treasure-Optimizer.exe

   • On Linux/macOS:

     ./RE4R-Treasure-Optimizer

   The application will start in Interactive Mode, allowing you to input various commands.
