[SUGGESTION] Cost Cap Projection #25
Description
Hi. I created a script to do one thing I believe is missing in the game but could be easily done on your page: a cost cap projection, taking all we have spent so far and accounting for all the commited spending that affects the cost cap: facilities upkeep and specific staff salaries. It's the only way to know eactly how much we can spend on design and research and parts development.
I used a script from xAranaktu to unpack the save file and made an SQL sript to get the data from the tables and a python script to organize the output to something like:
Cost Cap Spending Break Down
Car Part Development..... $ 94,500,000.00
Car Part Research........ $ 7,600,000.00
Staff Salaries........... $ 1,588,745.00
Engineering Team......... $ 409,200.00
Scouting Team............ $ 24,500.00
Pit Crew................. $ 350,000.00
Emergency Purchases...... $ 4,700,000.00
Facilities............... $ 9,135,500.00
--------------------------------------------
Total.................... $ 118,307,945.00
Monthly Cost
Staff Salaries........... $ 263,083.00 x 5 = $ 1,315,415.00
Engineering Team......... $ 52,800.00 x 5 = $ 264,000.00
Scouting Team............ $ 0.00 x 5 = $ 0.00
Pit Crew................. $ 50,000.00 x 5 = $ 250,000.00
Facilities............... $ 1,283,500.00 x 5 = $ 6,417,500.00
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Total.................... $ 1,649,383.00 $ 8,246,915.00

I believe it would be a nice addition to your page. Let me know if you're interested, I can give away the code for you. I do this for fun, no intention of any profit.
