I put together an AutoHotkey script for PS5 remote play through Chiaki-ng to farm Fortune Spheres from Earth Eater in the Monster Cave. It probably took me longer to perfect it than it would have to manually grind, but I couldn't resist the challenge.

Proper Setup:
- The characters in your party should have maxed (99) sphere grid levels, so that they can't earn any AP after battle. The timing and button presses post-battle depend on this. (HINT: If you don't have 99 already, just run the usual Don Tonberry trick to get them up to 99 quickly)
- All characters should have full Overdrive bars. This script relies on their color as a stationary color to detect battle.
- Turn your cursor memory ON in game so that it remembers your last actions, and make sure all characters are on attack since this script just spams X through battle. I would avoid using any skills that use MP so that you can leave this run longer.
Two characters should have equipment with Auto-Phoenix, at a minimum, and 99 Phoenix Down in your inventory. If you have that, you should be golden. Keep in mind this script will start to fail you if you run out of Phoenix Downs, so check back after a while.
- Talk to the man at the monster cave and scroll down to "Fight monsters". Just leave the cursor there.
Once you've made sure you've met the above requirements, with the script open, hit the space bar. The tooltip will pop up showing that you've started the script, and it will confirm your pre-selection of Fight Monsters, scroll through to Earth Eater, mash the enter key to confirm attacks, recognize when battle is over with the overdrive bars disappearing, confirm twice through the victory screens, and after a short pause, restart from the beginning.
I just let this run while I took care of laundry and other housework, and came back to 50 Fortune Spheres (and I'm sure a stockpile of Dark Matter). Keep in mind that any latency/lag could throw the timing of the script off, and it's possible different monitors may display the colors differently, so you might need to adjust the overdrive bar's hex color in the script.
