What D3Stats is used for
------------------------
D3Stats is for those who wants to get detailed statistics about their pilot skills. In this
version, you can know your total :

- Kills
- Deaths
- Suicides
- Score(which is Kills - Suicides)
- Efficiency(which is Kills/Deaths)
- Time played
- Kills/minute

Unfortunately, I don't have any stats file for other mod types, so only Anarchy is implemented
for now. If I can get some other stats file, I will be able to implement the other types.


Known bugs
----------
- Not a single one for now. The program only parses the stats text file, so if you haven't
  modified the stats files, everything should run fine. However, you can still e-mail me if you
  run into any...


How to use D3Stats
------------------
- The first thing you HAVE to do before doing anything is click on "File/Configuration...".

- You must then enter your pilot name. Be cautious, you have to enter it EXACTLY. Here's an
  example of what I want to say :

  Suppose your pilot name is "John Smith". If you enter "john smith" as your pilot name, it won't
  work. D3Stats will return 0 values everywhere. You have to enter "John Smith".

- You have to give the full path of your "netgames" directory located in Descent 3. An example :

  c:\games\descent3\netgames

  D3Stats will scan the directory and retrieve all the stats located in the ".stats" files. If
  you haven't played any multiplayer games, or if you haven't played a mod supported by D3Stats
  (only Anarchy in this version), then you have to play some! :)

- Click on "OK". You won't have to reenter these informations again, if the program is closed
  correctly(no crashes).

- Click on "Stats/Retrieve". After a second, you should see all your stats in the box. Enjoy! :)


Future of D3Stats
-----------------
This is a simple little program I've written in a day, but there's still a lot of stuff that
could be added. I'm thinking about getting the stats you got against each player you've already
played with, and some other things too. I wish the stats file will get more information to deal
with :)

However, I won't develop this program further if I see nobody's interested in it. So if you like
(or dislike) it, please e-mail me your thoughts and comments at "dkknight@quebectel.com".
