SC2kParser.js
This is a module that parses SimCity 2000 save files (*.SC2)
Install
npm install sc2kparser
Output
After the file is parsed, the parser returns a map of coordinates to tile info objects. See comments and save file documentation for more information about what each property is.
The struct looks like:
{
tiles: [
{
alt: 50,
building: 0,
conductive: false,
piped: false,
powersupplied: false,
saltwater: false,
terrain: {
slope: [0,0,0,0],
waterLevel: 0
},
underground: {
slope: [0,0,0,0],
subway: true
},
water: false,
watercover: false,
watersupplied: false,
zone: {
bottomLeft: false,
bottomRight: false,
topLeft: false,
topRight: false,
type: 0
}
}
],
cityName: "Cool City",
daysElapsed: 0,
founded: 34,
money: 0,
population: 255
}
Usage
Pass a typed array of bytes to the parse function like this:
let sc2kparser = require('sc2kparser');
// get file bytes somehow
let bytes = new Uint8Array(...);
let struct = sc2kparser.parse(bytes);
console.log(struct);
Here is an easy way to get a sc2k save file in the browser:
document.body.addEventListener('dragover', function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
}, false);
document.body.addEventListener('drop', function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
let file = event.dataTransfer.files[0];
let fileReader = new FileReader();
fileReader.onload = function(e) {
let bytes = new Uint8Array(e.target.result);
let struct = sc2kparser.parse(bytes);
console.log(struct);
};
fileReader.readAsArrayBuffer(file);
}, false);
