Distributions tool #6

Open KBheid opened 3 years ago

Parse Distributions.txt, output wiki Distribution section. Probably in Lua or a Java Lua interpreter? Not really sure how big that would be, don't want large jars but want it to be easily usable.

Potentially the interface has a list of all items. You select them and it outputs wiki text of distribution?

It would be highly volatile when it comes to updates to the game if they were to change the structure of Distributions.txt.

Keep in mind that there are few distribution files, one for items, one for vehicles and I think there's some for procedural ones too, I think one of the past Thurstoids mentioned the loot table changing, but I think the file format didn't.

There are some "random" item distributions not covered by these files too, such as foraging or fishing.

Yeaah... I forgot about that. Plus undeniable (I think is what it's called) from the Hydrocraft maker already has distributions. I wonder if theres an API I can access to use instead of loading each file myself? I'll ask around.

Edit: I don't think hes actually the creator of Hydrocraft, just supports it as well. Whoops :P
