Re: 3rd party Apps wishlist
The --preexec fix is in the next patch so I guess we can start programming around it for things like a game-save utility.
Im also looking at the --scoredump which generates a very nice tabled scoreboard. No running lines but nice numbers. Im thinking someone could easily write a program to add all the numbers together for an overall score. ManScore=armies+research+provinces
It might need some sort of formula to give a weighted amount to things like forts (forts*100?).
Im also still hoping someone will write a routine to save the numbers in scoredump and use them to recreate charts. There are plenty of chart routines out there so the actual graph/chart stuff wouldnt need written, just the collector. --scoredump --postexec collector.exe
