Yes, that is in fact very likely. Plus, Illwinter might feel obligated to keep track of every single future change to the format, which isn't very flexible.

So in the end I guess that any utility reading the files directly will either have to be very simple (like extracting the turn number), or written by Illwinter, which is fair I guess.

However, that still leaves the possibility of an ASCII export feature. If Illwinter would implement this we'd have all the data we need and the file-security wouldn't need to be compomised.

Do Illwinter read these forums or should I rather mail them directly?
