Feature request: Export simplified player stats #4918

Open fernandodiacenco opened 5 years ago

fernandodiacenco commented 5 years ago

Hello,

Sometimes, after a particularly interesting game I like to fill out a spreadsheet containing PUs, production, units, etc to generate graphs to check how well I was compared to previous games or players, usually data from this screen:

But this is a little time consuming, and I noticed that the game already exports data (full game stats, short game stats etc) but this file is gigantic and kinda difficult to generate graphs from a specific player

Would it be feasible to select a player in that tab and right click/export data? (perhaps even ctrl+click to select multiple)

Sorry if here isn't the right place to ask but in the site "Request a Feature" links here

Thanks!

Hi @fernandodiacenco Thanks for your feature request, usually those are discussed on the forum first, but looks like we haven't actually updated the link on the website.

I'm not quite sure what exactly you have in mind: Do you want to be able to copy the data from this screen, or do you want the game to be able to export all data, filtered by player?

Both request are feasible, the former is probably a lot easier to achieve. However as you might have noticed by the delay of this answer, we currently don't have a lot of free time to spare, so feature requests are pretty low on the priority list.

I honestly wish I had more time to spend on TripleA, but my current life situation (and I think this applies to the other devs as well) doesn't allow for more than a couple of hours a week, which isn't a lot when trying to actually implement something.

Of course if you want this implemented ASAP, and have some free time to spare you can also try implementing this feature yourself. We'd happily tell you everything you need to know (you should know the basics of programming though, there are a lot of youtube videos and other sources online).

Oh anything that could get me data (PU, production, units, tuv etc) from turn 1 until the actual turn would work (so I can paste it in calc/excel to generate graphs etc)

I'm wondering, does Triplea have some kind of bounty for features or something? I would like to invest a few beers in this

Thanks for answering!

Not to my knowledge ^^

However no one is stopping you from grabbing some random programmer from the internet and paying them to implement this feature 🤷‍♂

Maybe I'll have some time in the coming weeks. We'll have to see
