Mobile Plan

Tentative plan for making Mudlet available on Android and iOS:

1. Identify the key business logic components and extract them out into separate classes/modules:
   • Game connection and communication (handles connecting to game server, sending/receiving data)
   • User input processing (handles keyboard/mouse input)
   • Game display/rendering (handles displaying game text and maps)
   • Scripting engine (runs Lua scripts)
   • Settings/configuration
2. Create a "Mudlet Core" module that contains just the essential functionality needed for scripting:
   • Game communication
   • Input processing
   • Display rendering
   • Scripting engine
3. Implement a minimal Qt Widgets UI that uses Mudlet Core to provide a desktop authoring environment for creating/testing scripts.
4. Create a stripped down "Mudlet Mobile" app that links only to Mudlet Core using QML. It would provide:
   • Simple UI for connecting to a MUD
   • Ability to select/run scripts created on desktop
   • Basic input buttons on screen
   • Text display
5. Allow exporting scripts from desktop UI to a shared script repository.
6. Mobile app can download scripts from repository to run them.
7. Both apps share the same Mudlet Core component for running scripts.

This allows creating a full-featured desktop app for authoring, while still having a lightweight mobile app that can leverage the scripts. The key is the reusable Mudlet Core module that encapsulates the scripting logic.
