score graphs
Guys,
Can someone tell what is that mod or whatever that changes the score graph to little banners? I've seen it in some AAR screenshots but for the life of me can't find this thing. Thanks.

Re: score graphs
yeah, sounds like you've been reading Dominions 1 AARs without noticing. 
I've seen those screenies too, and like it. While it doesn't show history like line graphs, it shows the current relative quantity better. At least, I think so. |

Re: score graphs
I guess it was an AAR for Dom1, as I had never played that.
I like both I suppose. The icon-type graph seemed a bit more easier to get precise position, but the histogram provides some important facts about the past and the relative direction things are going.
At least that explains why I couldn't find it

Re: score graphs
Dom2 has a switch called --scoredump which creates a score.html showing how everyone compares. It shows it in straight numbers, but only the one turn. No history data.
So for Online game scores we have two choices. A comparison of everyone for that one turn, or a screen shot of each score graph from inside the game.
I have a request in the "3rd Party Apps Request" thread for someone to write a program that collects those and builds chart data from it. There are many free apps which will create the scoreboard we see if we can feed it those numbers. Or even something else like bars or piecharts. I could ALMOST write something myself to do it if I put some time in it.

Re: score graphs
I was asked for an example and realised I had both. http://www.dom2minions.com/~dominion/RyanzEye
Im thinking that something that just collects the numbers and puts them in a format that a program like GNUplot will accept could be created to put score graphs into a web dir on linux. It could be added to Mosehansons game webboard
