Save game log to SQLite

Feature Requests
1

Greetings,

I’ve been wanting to save game logs into a useful format for analysis later on, say as SQLite. Many different iterations of many different games of the same battle or campaign may reveal a “crowd-sourced” trend or strategy, which can be compared with the historical data.

With the structure of the log files, and a bit of Entity-Object mapping, this seems straight-forward.

Thanks,

It will be straightforward for you to convert VASSAL 4 log files, as the
logs will not be the encoded mess they are presently. We haven’t settled
on XML, JSON, or something else yet, but all you’d have to do is write a
converter.
