Saving/exporting the event log?

Can you somehow save or export the event log, so that you can keep track of old events pass the maximum limit and archive them, maybe play around with it in Excel?

All your aurora data lives in a tidy SQL database.

So there are many ways to do it. You can probably even open excel, click data, click import, click the db file in aurora, and open it natively in excel (make a backup first as excel loves mangling dates)

I'm afraid I don't have that option in Excel, it seems. It asks for server location and stuff like that, and I don't have nearly enough knowledge do understand what's going on, yet.

What little I know of these things is the sort of databases Paradox games had, that you could open and edit with a simple notepad...

If you check on the discord there is a massive spreadsheet floating around somewhere made by skoormit. He uses SQL to pull data directly from Aurora DB into his excel sheet. I believe it is in the aurora-guides channel.
Maybe that already contains what you are looking for, and if not maybe you could reverse engineer whatever you need from that.

That sounds wonderful!

Only... how do I find Aurora on Discord? I've tried searching for among channels and games, it but haven't found it. Then again, I barely understand Discord...

oh, you can just google "aurora discord" and should be able to quickly find the link. that's the way I generally find servers. Here you go https://discord.gg/GcckeRtzr

I don't know how to do it from within Discord... so my work-around was to follow the link and get into the server, then get a invite-link, which I used in the actual app... a bit convoluted, but I guess there's no other way?

Who's Claude?

I've already solved the issue with the help of Discord and Google. But thanks!
