Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes Assistant

An assistant to help you defuse modules for the game Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes using Speech Recognition and Speech Synthesis.

Before you give it a go, make sure that:

• You are using your default microphone. The program automatically sets the input to your default audio input device.
• You have installed voices for English. Microsoft David and Microsoft Zira should appear by default. If they don't, then you might not have installed voice for English.
• You are using headphones. You can use speakers too, but you might want to lower the volume, as it might interfere with the audio inputs (the bot can hear itself).
• You try different english accents. This is not my fault. I rarely struggle with my Greek accent, but I haven't tried other accents.

Reasons for forking

• Switch to a modern version of .NET
• Rewrite core to allow for easier extensibility
• Replace "bomb check" to account for setup mistakes
• Streamline input grammar
• Speed up the input of some modules

Initializing Bomb Settings

Some modules require additional properties to be set before they can be defused. The properties that matter are:

Property	Voice Command
Number of batteries	Set batteries <0-6 | more than two>
CAR indicator	Set car <yes | no | true | false | lit | unlit | on | off>
FRK indicator	Set freak <yes | no | true | false | lit | unlit | on | off>
Parallel port	Set port <yes | no | true | false | lit | unlit | on | off>
Vowel in serial number	Set vowel <yes | no | true | false | lit | unlit | on | off>
Last digit of serial number is even	Set digit <even | odd>

These properties can be changed at any time once the assistant has been set up along with:

Property	Voice Command
Strikes	Set strikes <0-2>

You can also skip this section if you want, by clicking the "Random Bomb" button. This button will initialize a bomb with completely random properties and is useful to quickly initialise a bomb when experimenting with modules.
