PTScore Plots

An example plot

A ploticus script for generating graphs of PTScore history in a VGA Planets game.

Most of the parameters (line widths, colors, race names) can be passed as arguments on the command line. Therefore it's easy to use race names from racename.nm file for a given game in the legend.

Plot data should be stored in a text file containing a record for one turn on every line1, therefore there's a Perl script included that reads PTScore output and appends it to score file (it's meant more as an example than a tool).
See documentation for more details.


1 ploticus can read data from many sources so it shouldn't be difficult to read it from e.g. a SQL database.
