EcoSystem to CSV

  • EcoSystem to CSV / CSV to EcoSystem

This download contains two Python scripts originally written for Vue 5 Infinite. ecotocsv.py saves a selected EcoSystem as a CSV file that can be edited in most spreadsheet packages or a text editor, csvtoeco.py, loads the edited CSV file back into Vue, modifying the instances with any changes you made in the CSV. My turorial Using Eco To CSV / CSV to Eco has more detail on how to make use of these scripts.

  10. # How to use in 4 easy steps
  11. #
  12. # 1. Download this file onto your computer
  13. #
  14. # 2. Edit the configuration variable maximum_objects below
  15. #    if you want to risk more that 1000 instances.
  16. #    Edit start if you want to start with an instance other than
  17. #    object 0
  18. #    Edit file to set where the file will be saved
  19. #
  20. # 3. Select an object with a populated EcoSystem applied
  21. #
  22. # 4. Then run script and wait for it to work
  23. #    To run it go to Python -> Run Python Script
  24. #    Then locate the file on your computer
