Scripts for extracting information from BattleTech game assets.
On MacOS the files can be found in ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/BATTLETECH/BattleTech.app
The scripts require the mech chassis files (chassisdef_NAME_TYPE.json) and star system files
(starsystemdef_NAME.json) be copied to their own directories, and that the files are "prepared" for use as defined below.
It is recommended that to overwrite any previous copies of the above files as details of mechs and systems may have changed between updates.
The location of each directory created above should be updated in each scripts main method
