Title: Detailed System Export?
Post by: wigmoso on August 16, 2014, 12:46:59 PM

Hi,
The search gods were not kind today-
Is there any way to export system data in a more detailed fashion than the copy-to-clipboard in the system display menu?

I'd like to write a macro to use the data shown in the system display menu to export systems to Space Engine (en.  spaceengine.  org/photo), so I can nerd out in my Aurora systems. 
Am I in luck?

Thank you

I know bgreman figured out how to do this for his Somethingawful Let's Play.  I don't remember if his solution required DB access though.  Sorry I couldn't be more specific.

Not sure if this repo is visible or not, but Kobata originally wrote this, and I've heavily modified it:

https://bitbucket.org/Kobata/aurora-spaceengine-converter

If it's not visible, I can put a binary up for download.  It does require the DB password.

Probably requires .NET 4.0.  Run it from the command line, follow the prompts, and it'll spit out your system and planet scripts.  You'll need to put those in the appropriate catalog directories within your SE install and update universe.cfg.
