To save a baseline exhibition game:

• Create a folder for your universe
• Start up Out of the Park 20 and create your base exhibition match
• Locate the .lg directory in the saved_games/ directory of the OOTP application data directory.
• Save the base .lg directory to the universe folder

To create a new timeline/game:

• Remove anything in the saved_games directory in the OOTP application data directory
• Copy the .lg directory to that saved_games directory
• Start up OOTP 20, click "Simulate", get an outcome
• IMPORTANT: Click "Game Log" to generate the play-by-play game log html
• Click "Return to OOTP Home Screen"
• Copy the resulting .lg directory back to the universe folder, optional timeline/outcome in name (cle98_t01_sdp9cle3, etc.)

To create CSV data:

• OOTP formerly generated its own CSV files with detailed stats, but after a recent update, no longer does
• This repo contains custom scripts to generate less-detailed CSV files from the play-by-play log
• See script in 98/scripts/

To create pelican site:

• Game almanacs must be extracted/processed and put in the right pelican folder
• See script in 98/scripts/
