When running MAA for the first time, it will perform a hot update. Please close and restart MAA when prompted in the log on the right.Drag the task list on the left to reorder tasks, and check or uncheck the checkboxes to select tasks to run.

The logs are located in the
debug
folder inside the MAA directory. Logs are extremely important. When seeking help from others, always bring bothasst.log
andgui.log
with you.MAA provides many customization options to meet all users' various needs. If you think MAA is missing a feature, it might just be hard to find rather than non-existent, such as
Manual stage name input
andDo not place stationed operators in dormitory
.Hovering your mouse pointer over certain options will display detailed explanations, such as
Do not place stationed operators in dormitory
.For some checkboxes, right-clicking will change them to a half-selected state. Checkboxes in this state will automatically clear when MAA is next started, which can be understood as
