Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

Export tool and personnal tools

Hi all,

Is there such tool in new version 1.6.* ?

I'm searching for something that allows us to export turn datas in csv format.

If not, is-it planned to add it in next version ?

I suppose that many players use spreadsheets to follow turn, can they show them to us ?

Regards,
Christophe

There is nothing currently for live game data. There is a way to export scenario data from editor. Adding similar functionality to the game is complex enough not to pass the "available coding resources" tests. Personally I'd really like to make it someday. Hopefully it could be done in WITW and back ported to WITE.

Just dump the structs and their order in the save file, and any programmer here can do the rest :)

Also, please consider adding very simple option that would allow to copy to clipboard the current table of commander's report - just separate the columns with \t, lines with \r\n and send it to clipboard - from that point it's very easy to paste into a spreadsheet and shouldn't be hard to code.

All,

I fully suppport this - a great idea to enable the non-player to keep enjoying WitE, by being able to review the data and plan for a better war, while the player turn is done by the dreaded opponent.
