This may sound stupid, but I suddenly connected two things in my head about limit theory which makes this seem like a plausible idea. So in a dev log in february Josh said that he made a mini HTTP server in luajit to be able to change limit theory variables. Using this and a well designed public interface, it should theoretically be possible to make quite an intriquing twitch plays LT.

This is an interesting idea, and I believe there's some merit to it. It's too soon to tell exactly what it would entail, but I'd certainly be all for it. :thumbup:

inputs alter AI preference for specific things.
AI plays Limit Theory, Twitch watches AI play it and semi-actively controls the AI.

...
Once the multiplayer mod goes in, if this gets done, I will set up like 5 or 6 streams on different VMs with this running on them and the AIs can wage war against each other in a limited finite universe :V

Oh, that would be amazing. :D Very excited about that possibility. I did always love AI. (It was actually what got me hooked on LT to begin with.)

This is brilliant. I think that I will definitely be making this as my first mod.
