Hey guys! Wanted to ask if you find this useful or not, I'm trying to consolidate in a spreadsheet the stats of different elements of the game, but wanted to have your opinion, or even, someone else may already have done it, IDK
Once all data is loaded I would like to do a dynamic dashboard where units could be compared in a more visual and engaging way.

I mean I love spreadsheet and I love good data vis, looks like it'll be fun. Maybe host it somewhere so people can play around with it
Better then having to pull the data from github directly
normal sluice
the data from the unit deffs isnt everything
you also need to look at the .bos scripts
IMO for high end spreadsheets
split dps into reload and damge
its a horrible stat to use for bar
it doesnt show the weapons purpose and assumes that the unit does that damage 1 times a second
when that is not the case for the vast majority of units

I was thinking in creating a public Tablueau Dashboard, dynamic filtering, interaction, etc, it's hosted by them and it's free (as long as it's public) , and I'm particularly good with it (I've worked with it in my job).

I thought about it, but I'd have to parse Lua into Python (language I'm familiar with) but doesn't look too straightforward

Fair points! Those are actually the kind of things would need additional or more specific metrics than the ones provided in the web page (rather related to the unit .lua properties)
I was thinking in this in something to provide a first look over the stats of somethings, having into account that for new players (as I'm) it's rather difficult to get a good grasp of why certain units have certain traits.
I think having all into a single source, where you can dinamically filter and see have a first look of how units compare could lead to a good foundation.
In summary, more for beginner and intermediate kind of users I'd say.
In any case this task is quite time consuming and inefficient. not sure if someone would like to help

I 'm not that free but I'm willing to put in somework
And I do agree that Stats isn't every thing so we could put some tags in for units detail

DM me your email so I can give u permissions, if you feel like it.
Also I spotted this https://discord.com/channels/549281623154229250/1089779228469362758
Maybe I can ask him permission to use his data so we can expedite this effort
