Does Dolphin have a script interface I can use to issue commands to Dolphin (not necessarily the emulated game) algorithmically via a script?


Specifically, I am interested in issuing the follow commands via script:
- Frame Advance
- Take Screenshot
- Load State
- Save State
- TAS Input (i.e., adjusting the input values)

Thanks

(I posted this same thread under "Support" but did not receive a reply, so I thought perhaps this might be a more appropriate location for the question.)
Sorry, I think I meant to post on your post before as I asked some people about it. Anyway I think dolphin use to be able to do this (via lua), but it has since been removed and I'm not sure if/when it is coming back.
I have a branch on my github that brings back the old lua interface and kinda sorta works, but it's a huge mess (it was removed for a reason), and barely works. Probably not worth the trouble though.

I see. I guess I'll have to implement a scripting interface myself, then.
