A simple GUI application for reading the state of Stellaris save games written in Python.

Provides these key features:

• Reads basic game information faster than opening Stellaris and loading a save game.
• Calculates how many years (turns) are left before the victory year.
• Helps plan multiplayer games spanning multiple sessions.

SGI can be run by either one of two ways:

• Use the executible file:
  1. Download the latest release.
  2. Extract all files and launch stellaris_save_game_info v1.0.0.exe.

Or

• Use the .py files:
  1. Install Python. SGI was built using version 3.9 and uses the standard library.
  2. Clone or download the repo.
  3. Launch the stellaris_save_game_info.py file.

This program was born out of some minor frustrations:

• The Stellaris load game menu onlys shows the current year, but not the victory year. It's not possible to determine how much of a game is left without loading the game. Both these operations take time. SGI provides this information in seconds.

• After setting the galaxy conditions at the beginning of the game they are not visible from any program menu.
• Other save game tools required too much system configuration, such as the installation of other programming frameworks, and didn't provide a single executible.

SGI searches for specific strings defined in the stellaris_save_game_info.ini. SGI does not parse Stellaris's save game format. It may be possible to search for other strings.
