As long as you only edit things inside of the "" most people could contribute. As for getting the information, you'd only need to copy what you see in game.
So you dont get a dump of let say the ability tables which could be checked automatically for changes? Instead you need check changes to abilities in game?

Thats it Cimba.
On the initial one we did that on the dev/testserver - to make sure the future ability changes were in the builder too.
Dunno how they did it on the following changes - but i guess if you have any idea to kill the manual work
you can discuss it with nath.
OCRANA ...deal with it!

I am new here. I am not a developer, but I am happy to help any way I can. If I am informed on what needs to be done, I think I might be able to give some time to make it happen; if its not too developer-ish complex.

Out of interest, why not link it to the definitions in the DB so it's always in line with the current version of 'live' ?

If these ability descriptions, requirements etc are associated against a DB entry, it should be easy enough to use SQL to pull these out with whatever their db ref id is (rather than the name of the ability) and produce a text file

if the 'career' trees are stored (with associated ref ids of abilities) it should be straightforward to reconstruct this (and I'm sure much of this was already done)

Descriptions are client side, not in the DB

As one of my colleagues says, doing things twice is already too much.
I do not know how the development of the abilities in War works, but I think that we must direct the search towards the automatic update of the builder in case of change in game.

So they are in the code base somewhere and get pushed out as client updates via the launcher

Why not generate the file from the code base?
