Re: An Epic Generator...
Its not exactly moddable because the mods dont allow you to create output as far as I know.
It is however doable in a small way (Ive been considering something like it for awhile). One of the many game settings that a host can use includes one to create a debug file. Its basically a text log of everything the program thought about and decided on while it was processing the turns.
Personally I would consider it easiest to do on a linux server but I guess it could be done on Windows or Mac. A program in any programming language could read thru the turn log, gather the appropriate data, rewrite it into a storybook form and HTML it, then copy the html file to a web-directory for viewing by everyone. It would be a major project but worth doing.
You could use the --postexec switch to call your program right after each time that the host processes a turn.
