What is this

• A script (analyze_board.ts) to analyze a wargear board, to find the best combination of continents to target based on the value:border ratio
• A script (analyze_game.ts) to analyze an in-progress wargear game, to find stats on how much power each player has on the board (e.g. territories, value, units)

Assumptions (I think, been a while):

• Continents don't overlap
• No special borders?

Side goals:

As much as possible:

• Use pure functional style (and ramda library where possible)
• Rely on TS type inference (no explicit type casting)

Setup

Install dependencies:

nvm use
npm install

Compile

tsx analyze_board.ts analyze_game.ts types.ts

To analyze board:

On a wargear page, open the dev console, refresh the game, and note the XHR request. It will include the board id

Transform XML result from http://www.wargear.net/rest/GetBoardData/<board-id>>?player=js into JSON with no prefixes using an online conversion tool

Place resulting JSON into this directory as board.js

node analyze_board.js

To analyze game:

On a wargear page, open the dev console, refresh the game, and note the XHR request

Copy that request's response into game.js in this directory

node analyze_game.js
