Available renderers:
 - text
 - XML
 - MP3
 - FlashPlayerCode


Some Examples:

java -jar JSpaceAlertMissionGenerator.jar -p text --play
 - Print mission as English text file and start playing MP3s.

java -jar JSpaceAlertMissionGenerator.jar -o XML -p text -p MP3
 - Print mission as text on screen, save it as XML and start playing MP3 ("print" MP3 translates to --play).

java -jar JSpaceAlertMissionGenerator.jar -p text -l 10 -u 2 -i 2 -I 4 --allow-double-threats --max-time-serious-external 8 --max-time-normal-internal 8
 - Create "Standard Mission" for "The New Frontier" expansion using double actions.

Right now, the generator is quite basic: Start it from the command line and it will output a mission profile.
It will also play the mission if you provide MP3 files in a directory called "clips" in the same directory where you execute the jar.


In order to play the MP3 clips, you need to download a set of MP3 files and save them in "clips".
Look at https://github.com/nibuen/SpaceAlertMissionGenerator/tree/master/app/src/main/res/raw for the English files.

Known bugs:
- currently none

Planed additions and wishlist:

- configuration via command line options
- import of XML, Flash File Code and text
- MP3 file export (generating an MP3 file of the whole mission)
- graphical GUI



Compiling Java Space Alert Mission Generator:

You can compile the generator yourself if you do not want to download the JAR above, you can compile the source yourself:

Download using git:
git clone git://github.com/mkalus/JSpaceAlertMissionGenerator.git

Change to directory JSpaceAlertMissionGenerator:
cd JSpaceAlertMissionGenerator

Compile using Maven2-Build System and Java:
mvn install

The executable will be compiled in:
target/JSpaceAlertMissionGenerator-1.3.1-jar-with-dependencies.jar


If you do not use Maven2, you will need following libraries:
- JLayer is an MP3 player (LGPL-Licence): http://www.javazoom.net/javalayer/javalayer.html
- Options Parser (Apache Licence): http://jcommander.org/
