Thoughts on diff-mods and INI files.

I would *love* local and session storage!! Already proposed that on a number of occasions. I can see immediate uses for both AIs and campaigns. Speaking of which, the way in which data from campaign missions gets stored for subsequent missions is still a mystery to me (if anyone knows, please create a post or wiki page and explain it!).

You are correct in that it would be better to have single .js file, that is certainly lots cleaner. We still need way for JS API to interact with ini files, I previously posted some feature requests for that: Expose .ini stats to JS API

These are still not available? I remember that you proposed them and asked for them many times more than half year ago, so I suspected that those are already available in some form... Anyway, those would be useful also in other cases (I remember that you wanted to use them to collect data for AIs learning from what player does).

Bump.
Per has just pushed the patch, we can try things out now.

Also, all stats files except limits.txt have now been changed to .ini file format!

Now, the last thing we're still missing is a fancy script to convert all txts to inis in one click. The conversion was done by several people, but publishing some code snippets could be useful, i think.

After that, i guess, the new modding season is starting

Trying to make one.
