############################################################################### <# .SYNOPSIS Opens a viral simulation game in a web browser with extensive configuration options. .DESCRIPTION Opens the viral simulation game at https://viral.genxdev.net/ in a specified web browser with configurable window settings, positioning, and behavior options. Supports multiple browsers, private browsing, application mode, and comprehensive window management features. The function provides an interactive viral simulation experience with features like: - Multiple browser support (Edge, Chrome, Firefox) - Window positioning and sizing controls - Full-screen and application mode options - Private browsing capabilities - Keyboard automation support - Multi-monitor support .PARAMETER Language The language for the web content display and browser language settings. .PARAMETER Private Opens in incognito/private browsing mode. .PARAMETER Force Force enable debugging port, stopping existing browsers if needed. .PARAMETER Edge Opens in Microsoft Edge. .PARAMETER Chrome Opens in Google Chrome. .PARAMETER Chromium Opens in Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome, depending on default browser. .PARAMETER Firefox Opens in Firefox. .PARAMETER All Opens in all registered modern browsers. .PARAMETER Monitor The monitor to use, 0 = default, -1 is discard, -2 = Configured secondary monitor. .PARAMETER FullScreen Opens in fullscreen mode. .PARAMETER Width The initial width of the webbrowser window. .PARAMETER Height The initial height of the webbrowser window. .PARAMETER X The initial X position of the webbrowser window. .PARAMETER Y The initial Y position of the webbrowser window. .PARAMETER Left Place browser window on the left side of the screen. .PARAMETER Right Place browser window on the right side of the screen. .PARAMETER Top Place browser window on the top side of the screen. .PARAMETER Bottom Place browser window on the bottom side of the screen. .PARAMETER Centered Place browser window in the center of the screen. .PARAMETER ApplicationMode Hide the browser controls. .PARAMETER NoBrowserExtensions Prevent loading of browser extensions. .PARAMETER DisablePopupBlocker Disable the popup blocker. .PARAMETER AcceptLang Set the browser accept-lang http header. .PARAMETER KeysToSend Keystrokes to send to the Browser window, see documentation for cmdlet GenXdev.Windows\Send-Key. .PARAMETER SendKeyEscape Escape control characters when sending keys. .PARAMETER SendKeyHoldKeyboardFocus Prevent returning keyboard focus to PowerShell after sending keys. .PARAMETER SendKeyUseShiftEnter Send Shift+Enter instead of regular Enter for line breaks. .PARAMETER SendKeyDelayMilliSeconds Delay between sending different key sequences in milliseconds. .PARAMETER FocusWindow Focus the browser window after opening. .PARAMETER SetForeground Set the browser window to foreground after opening. .PARAMETER Maximize Maximize the browser window after positioning. .PARAMETER RestoreFocus Restore PowerShell window focus. .PARAMETER NewWindow Don't re-use existing browser window, create a new one. .PARAMETER PassThru Returns a [System.Diagnostics.Process] object of the browserprocess. .PARAMETER ReturnURL Don't open webbrowser, just return the url. .PARAMETER ReturnOnlyURL After opening webbrowser, return the url. .PARAMETER NoFullScreen Don't open in fullscreen mode. .PARAMETER NoApplicationMode Do show the browser controls. .PARAMETER NoBorders Removes the borders of the browser window. .PARAMETER SideBySide Position browser window either fullscreen on different monitor than PowerShell, or side by side with PowerShell on the same monitor. .PARAMETER SessionOnly Use alternative settings stored in session for AI preferences. .PARAMETER ClearSession Clear alternative settings stored in session for AI preferences. .PARAMETER SkipSession Store settings only in persistent preferences without affecting session. .EXAMPLE Open-ViralSimulation -Chrome -Private -NoFullScreen Opens viral simulation in Google Chrome with private browsing mode and no fullscreen. .EXAMPLE viral -ch -incognito -nfs Opens viral simulation using aliases with Chrome, incognito mode, and no fullscreen. #> function
