Dom3 Database - v3.10

[lch]

Could you produce versions with static values instead of the formulas from the DB files you have? Because it does take lots of time to open the DB even on most recent computer hardware. I think most of that time is for replacing all those formulas with their respective values and could be shortened a lot for people who don't want to change the spreadsheet, just view it.

lch, you could also do this yourself by just saving the page you want as a .csv in OpenOffice. So you end up with a directory with a bunch of .csv's, and just open the one you want, for example units (example attached).

There may even be an easier way to do this, but I'm unfortunately lazy, so once I find something that works without much too much trouble, my motivation to find a better solution evaporates.

Yes, I can do that, Ich.

It's probably a good idea to include a static version for reference and leave a the full DB in case someone wants to copy it and use it as a base for a mod project where a lot of things are changed. That way if someone wants to do a CBM DB for example, they just copy the full DB under a different name and change the values that the mod changes.

Making the static version will be easy, since all it requires is copying everything in a page and then Paste-specialing only its values on anotehr page, that'll get rid of the formulas and the time needed for calculation.

It's also confirmed that there will NOT be a 3.14 version of the DB, but a version for the next patch, since I don't like doing duplicate efforts.

Cool, thanks! That's easier than my clunky .csv export
