Eugene S proposed the following answer:
Without going too deep into details, it does sound hard (or even
impossible) to do. The way Sikuli works is by matching previously stored
image patterns to whatever there is on the screen. The match will
evaluate to true of 2 images match with a certain degree of similarity
while it is not recommended to go below ~90%. From your description it
sounds like the environment you are thinking to automate is graphically
complex and contains constantly changing features. This is a problem
with Sikuli as the way it matches the patterns is pixel by pixel so even
slight changes in the picture will greatly reduce the match score to a
point where your matching will just become unreliable.

That being said, if I made a wrong assumption about the game's graphical
environment or if you could use some simplified mode to control your
movement (like an in-game minimap or something), there might be few
workarounds.

Let me know if what I said makes sense.

Cheers,
Eugene S
