I know Exile has alot on his plate, maybe someone can volunteer there services to him...I think its VERY important to have the results posted within 48 hours of an event, we have no kill buffer, only confirmed visuals...we really need the stats posted.

The scripts are on Exile's server.  As far as I know, no one else has permissions to alter them (which is necessary to run for the correct event.)

So I'll go get the raw logs and put them into Excel format.   You can thank the State of Florida for paying for this service.

Dang!  Cheesehead has five maneuver kills on us.  But this made me think of something and it would probably be cool if for at least "special events" (TODs and stuff) AI gets the credit when due.  It would show the battle more accurately.  I for one was never touched by an enemy aircraft and instead was vaporized by the enemy fleet's AI ack.

Impossible to separate out ack kills from actual maneuver kills.  Be nice if ack kills were added to the game.

Thanks Nifty, but I am looking for a more permanent solution, surely we cannot burden the tax payers of FL for this work week in and week out ;).

Thought I would have a go at doing the same for Frame 3 of Malta, going by your format - partly as an exercise in using Excel and partly as something to do while I am at home from work on Official Strike today....  :D  The results of my efforts are here:  http://www.flos.clara.net/storage/Malta3.htm   :)

well ... you could pay me $125/hr and I'll guarantee the sorties will be ready 30 minutes after each event.  ;)

what exile is saying is when he has time, he's going to make a more permanent solution.  ;)  We've talked about it (I suggested something and he said he'd already thought about it) and really it's just when the poor guy has time to get it done.  Until then, you'd have to pay consultant fees for him to shirk his work duties.  ;)

Me, I don't mind taking a little time here and there to do the MS Excel stuff, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to help Exile with the permanent scripting stuff.  I'd end up screwing up his whole simladder site!  :eek:

$125 an hour? No wonder the USA is losing soooo much work to overseas competition :D

Anyway, whatever works, I had folks private me on two separate occasions in the main arena lately asking for them, just thought it'd be nice to see the results in a fairly quick fashion.  I'd love to help, but these two little testosterone trolls living me at the moment needs their daddy alot of the time...tough to do anything without an interruption of some sort anymore...

$125 an hour?  And here's me on Official Strike today because I barely scrape £5-£6 per hour (about $7.00-$8.00 per hour?)  :rolleyes: ;)

hehe ... I wish I got paid $125/hr

I'm salaried like most everyone else and don't even come close to that with the hours I work. $125 is about what we charge for hourly maintenance work though. Ya gotta love America ... time is money!! :D
