RubyRed Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) So I originally had a thought about building a tool that needed some of the powers data, and that led me down the rabbit hole of how exactly to get the specific numbers from the client data. There are certainly sources floating around out there, but most of them are out-of-date, so I created a tool which can extract directly from the bin files of the latest builds and then spit it back out as JSON. Then I host those files online, et voila! >>> https://coh.tips/powers/ <<< Last update: February 12, 2021 -- Issue 27 page 1 (v2) It's not really an API, but it can be used like one. Additionally, you can just download the JSON files if you'd rather use them without an internet connection. I'm not trying to replicate the raw data exactly, rather it is in fact a massaged version that tries to make sense of the complex structures. v2 API is online, deprecating the v1 API. The v1 data is still available at the same URL as before (I have no current plans to remove it even though it's deprecated). It is safe to use the online v2 API as the structure is set. New data may be added but there will be no breaking changes to field names or structure. If you're looking for some tips on how to read bin files yourself, I put together a blog post about it: https://rubidium.dev/2020/03/07/code-archaeology-reading-city-of-heroes-bin-files.html Also this is completely open source. I tried to write it in such a way that anyone can follow along at home and incorporate learnings into their own projects: https://gitlab.com/rubidium-dev/powers Here's hoping that more community devs can build some awesome tools and web sites for us to enjoy. 😎 Edited February 12, 2021 by RubyRed i27 page 1 (update) 9 7 "We're out of options, I'll have to use the jetpack," I said, strapping on the jetpack and ignoring the many non-jetpack options still left.

Sif Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 An alternative approach to hardcoding the bin -> struct deserialization is what I took here. It leverages serde to be able to deserialize arbitrary structs, as long as the underlying data types (such as u32, u8, vec, string) have been implemented (and they only need to be implemented once). Overall, I found that to remove a lot of the tedium.
RubyRed Posted March 7, 2020 Author Posted March 7, 2020 Yeah if I was going to start completely from scratch and actually care about reusability I'd do that. Maybe a v2 some day. For now it works, which was my primary goal lol. "We're out of options, I'll have to use the jetpack," I said, strapping on the jetpack and ignoring the many non-jetpack options still left.

Progor Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 (edited) @RubyRed I was about to start working on what @Sif suggested using his library to create something like what you just did... but you've already done it, plus calculated scales, so I'll work with yours for now. Thank you both for your efforts! Two things I notice missing from the API that is useful for planner-like things are Pets (how much does the burn patch do over time? How much does a Protector Bot bubble for?) and Boosts (Enhancements). I'll add those power categories and see what comes out in the parse locally, but we may need to end up parsing boostsets.bin to get all the info necessary. Edited March 8, 2020 by Progor
RubyRed Posted March 8, 2020 Author Posted March 8, 2020 Yeah the boosts are part of the powers but right now I'm explicitly filtering them out so I can focus on getting the power data correct. I didn't see enhancement sets in the stuff I did parse so you're probably right that it's in a different bin.

Mikewho Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 (edited) I really appreciate this, thank you. I’ll try it out soon! EDIT: Just taking a quick look through the JSON files. Awesome stuff. Is the enhancements & set bonuses, and AT limits info somewhere? Not seeing it at first glance. Edited March 8, 2020 by Mikewho
RubyRed Posted March 8, 2020 Author Posted March 8, 2020 Not at the moment. I specifically skipped over enhancements and sets because I was focused on powers. But they're mostly in the same place. I might make a separate enhancements data set at some point. I haven't touched the AT limits yet either. I've seen where they're at, and I'll probably add them to the AT data set in the future, but I'm still focused on getting the power effects accurate, they're kind of a mess at the moment.

From what I understand of City of Data, I think it's basically just a dump of what's in the bins in a nice easy to read format. It would definitely be possible to remake it in some format, obviously that would go faster if someone is around that still owns the source code.

RubyRed Posted March 14, 2020 Author Posted March 14, 2020 Updated today with many many improvements. Fixed a lot of bugs and worked out the details of a lot more powers.

I also added a display_info field that mimics to a degree how power effects are described in the in-game UI.

I haven't really looked at how Mids works and it was not really my intention to support a character builder, though that could technically be possible. 14 minutes ago, Mikewho said: Loving all the updates!

RubyRed Posted March 22, 2020 Author Posted March 22, 2020 BETA 3 is up. I'm pretty happy with this latest data set. Most of this week's work was on the back-end trying to fix up some bugs and make sure the data is consistent. I found a pretty dumb one that messed up all the arc/radius values for AoEs and cones, but it's fixed now. Outside of the bugs though, I've added a few convenience items like a power-level display_info that mimics some of the info as it's seen in the in-game UI: Spoiler { "name": "Widow_Training.Widow_Training.Dart_Burst", "display_name": "Dart Burst", "icon": "https://coh.tips/powers/assets/powers/b9/widowtraining_dartburst.png", "display_help": "Dart Burst does light lethal damage to foes in a 30 degree arc cone, then poisons them.

I'd like to have a true "version 1" out that folks can use by first of April. 3 1 "We're out of options, I'll have to use the jetpack," I said, strapping on the jetpack and ignoring the many non-jetpack options still left.

RubyRed Posted April 2, 2020 Author Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) It's been a little while, I've been meaning to get that v1 out the door but i26 p5 dropped sooner than I thought. Also I got sick (hopefully not coronavirus but probably is). In good news, I was able to make all the necessary adjustments to parse the new powers.bin file format (a lot of subtle little changes threw me off for a couple days). Now I just need to take a good look at the new chain effect parameters used by Electrical Affinity to make sure the output matches what's seen in-game. Expect one more beta release soon-ish... EDIT: Oh almost forgot, when I got interrupted by i26 p5, I was in the middle of implementing detailed pet info (powers, etc.) so expect that in the next version.

RubyRed Posted April 5, 2020 Author Posted April 5, 2020 Released BETA 4 this morning, based on Issue 26 Page 5. Includes fun new stuff, like Electrical Affinity and Experimentation! Supports the new Chain powers, so it should accurately report jump distance, max targets, etc. Fixed a bunch of small bugs with parsing requirements expressions, which will forever be the bane of my existence. In particular, things that used "minmax" like Scourge shouldn't be horribly broken any more. Summary power data is included inline for pets, power grants, power execute parameters. This should make Incarnate lore pets easier to parse now in particular because before all their data was in the top level Incarnate power category. Keyword "summary" here. Originally I tried it including the full power data like I do for top-level items, but this bloated some of the power sets by like an additional 80%, which started to get unwieldy. Since the point of this data set is to be focused on player powers, I felt this was an acceptable trade off.

Supports the new Chain powers, so it should accurately report jump distance, max targets, etc. Fixed a bunch of small bugs with parsing requirements expressions, which will forever be the bane of my existence. In particular, things that used "minmax" like Scourge shouldn't be horribly broken any more. Summary power data is included inline for pets, power grants, power execute parameters. This should make Incarnate lore pets easier to parse now in particular because before all their data was in the top level Incarnate power category. Keyword "summary" here. Originally I tried it including the full power data like I do for top-level items, but this bloated some of the power sets by like an additional 80%, which started to get unwieldy. Since the point of this data set is to be focused on player powers, I felt this was an acceptable trade off. Enjoy! Thanks, @RubyRed! I hope you're feeling better soon! 1 @Rathstar Energy/Energy Blaster (50+3) on Everlasting Energy/Temporal Blaster (50+3) on Excelsior Energy/Willpower Sentinel (50+3) on Indomitable Energy/Energy Sentinel (50+1) on Torchbearer
City Council Number Six Posted April 5, 2020 City Council Posted April 5, 2020 Minor correction, what you have labeled as "chain_max_targets_expression" is not specific to chain powers but is a generic parameter (MaxTargetsExpr) that can be used for any AoE power. I don't see the other advanced chain parameters but I'm assuming you're leaving those out to keep the output more readable. The rest of the new stuff (DeadOrAliveAny, etc) all looks good as far as I can tell. 😀 2
RubyRed Posted April 5, 2020 Author Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) Thanks! The target expression seemed to only be used by the new chain powers so I incorrectly assumed it was limited to that usage. I may dig deeper on some of the more advanced parameters, but I'm not sure if they would add anything that someone just looking for "what does this power do" will find useful. I do that across the board for a lot of parameters that really only the game client/server cares about. Edited April 5, 2020 by RubyRed "We're out of options, I'll have to use the jetpack," I said, strapping on the jetpack and ignoring the many non-jetpack options still left.

Dismiss Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Question on if I'm just stupid or if the information isn't there. I'm trying to figure out the details of the interface incarnate procs, but I see no damage/frequency when I look through the data. Am I missing it or is it somewhere else? I'm thinking I'm just dumb and I'm missing something. I found the duration, but that's all. Appreciate this info, super useful for the project I'm working on.
