Simple set of scripts bundled together with bash that:

• reads Paradox save game files for Stellaris
• parses them into JSON files via jomini parser
• creates lightweight JSON data file containing basic information about empires, star systems etc.
• passes this "geo" data into GraphViz to create regions:
  • star systems
  • empires
  • sectors
  • "independencies" - alliances and independent empires
• those files can be used combined with data from save game to generate nice graphs with detailed information about game
• take a look at basic usage repository for more details

1. Locate Stellaris save game folder of your system.

• On my Mac it's: /Users/<username>/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/save games

2. Locate ".sav" files. Copy them somewhere, and unzip it (they are really just zip archives)
3. Inside there are 2 files. We're interesed in gamestate file
4. Run:

sh generate.sh <your-gamestate-file-location> <output-directory>

5. Enjoy the data!
6. Pull request and forks are welcome. This game really needs better reporting!

To run scripts you need an Unix system with:

• bash
• graphviz and neato execs on the system
• node.js (tested on v6.9.4)
• python (it's using 2.7.13 for some reason... not sure if the libs are working with Python 3)
• installed dependencies (npm i, pip install -r utils/star-graph/requirments.txt)
• feel free to update this if I forgot about some lib
