Data Base for Actions

Postby pl704 » Wed Apr 13, 2016 10:17 pm

Is there any like hood that you could provide us with a tool to modify some parts of the action file using a text file, or similar, and then compile it into a bjf? I want to add several custom categories but the category editor is a little difficult to work with:

Each time I add a category to a group, the group collapses. Also the group default minimum passion level and maximum are not settable (which would be nice to get a default level each time you create a child category). And I cant make the Copy function to work.

I mean, the Editor is neat... but there are always some things that are better managed in text ;)

For example, a simple csv definition could look like:

Category name, Child of group, Def Min passion, Def Max passion, Repetition Rate

Then the file would be (for the default categories):

Talking About, TopLevelGroup, 1, 9, 1
Hopes Dreams and Memories, Talking About, 1, 1, 1
Sexual Likes & Dislikes, Talking About, 2, 3, 1
Friendly Touching, TopLevelGroup, 1, 9, 1
Hugs & Kisses, TopLevelGroup, 1, 9, 1
Dancing Together, Friendly Touching, 2, 4, 1
...

I tried looking for the format of the bjf, I tried to read it in an hex editor, but then I found it is a custom db here in the forum. So it would be impossible for me to do a script or the like to do what I want.

Any suggestion?
