===Project Kinoko===
 
 
 
Project Kinoko is the decompilation and subsequent rewriting of Mario Kart Wii's [[Physics Engine|physics engine]]. Kinoko will receive a frame's inputs, run the physics engine on that frame with those inputs, and send the physics state back. Its intended use is to serve as a black box for machine learning algorithms, with an emphasis on speed. The goal is to recompile the engine into a DLL.
 
 
 
The current classes that have been decompiled for Kinoko are as follows:
 
 
 
;Decompiled Classes
 
:[x] ResourceManager (responsible for managing SZS files in memory)
 
:[x] RaceConfig (responsible for initializing values for racers, e.g. vehicle/character)
 
:[/] CourseMap (responsible for holding the course's [[KMP (File Format)|KMP]])
 
:[-] RaceManager (responsible for updating the race state, e.g. players' countdowns and placements)
 
:[-] CourseModel (responsible for holding the course's [[KCL (File Format)|KCL]])
 
:[-] game/kart (responsible for updating players' position/rotation - this is an entire folder of classes!)
 
:[-] game/item (responsible for updating players' items - only certain classes in this folder apply!)

===Client/Server Netcode===
 
One of [[MKW-SP]]'s in-progress features is to move away from [[Wiimmfi]] and peer-to-peer races. Instead, clients will send information to a server responsible for overseeing the race, and the server will send relevant information about other players back. The current progress is that the clients successfully load into a race with a voted course and correctly configured players. The next step is to load the server into the race as a spectator.
