WT Session Readout
AI disclosure
This project is written almost entirely by AI (primarily Claude, by Anthropic), under the owner's guidance, review and corrections. That is intentional: AI-written code is welcome here — it is held to the same rules as any other contribution (see below), and the owner, Apolox, decides what ships. AI assistants working on the repository should read AGENTS.md; contributors should read CONTRIBUTING.md.
Project rules
- Everything stays client-side. All processing happens in your browser. There is no server, account, analytics, tracking, third-party script, font or CDN. Nothing leaves your device unless you click an export button and save a file yourself. The only requests the site makes are for its own files and the sample data; the GitHub logo in the top bar is just a link. This is checked by automated tests (the
clientside suite) and enforced by the pages' Content-Security-Policy.
- All text is untrusted. Logs, imports and saved settings are escaped, validated and size-limited.
- No runtime dependencies. Plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
- Tests are never skipped or weakened to get green.
- No invented facts: no made-up game rules, numbers or sources.
- Sample data is the owner's. The files in
example data/ come from Apolox (the project owner), from their own War Thunder matches; they are not anyone else's data. See example data/README.md.
- Security reports: privately, as described in SECURITY.md. How security is built in: docs/security-practices.md.
War Thunder and its names belong to their respective owners; this project is independent and unofficial.
What it is
A single-page, client-side tool for analyzing pasted War Thunder match-log text. Paste one or more match reports and it will:
- Split matches by battle type (Random Battles, Tank Assault, or custom rules you define)
- Dedupe repeated match reports by Session ID, so pasting overlapping log ranges never double-counts a match
- Tally RP earned toward new vehicles ("RP by Research Target"), with module/modification RP kept in a separate, collapsed "Other RP" table so the two are never mixed together
- Run a goal calculator estimating how many matches you need to hit an RP or SL target, based on your actual win/loss averages
- Import/export session data so you can carry progress across multiple paste sessions
- Save every analyzed match (compressed, in your browser) so the Advanced view can show a full per-match breakdown, cross-match insights and storage tools
- Fit a phone: below 680 px wide the top bar's controls fold into a Menu button, which also lists the page's sections to jump to
- Walk you through all of it with a built-in step-by-step tutorial (opens on your first visit; reopen any time from ? Tutorial)
Everything runs locally in the browser — no server, no account, no data leaves your machine (except when you explicitly export a file). The match archive is stored in your browser only (IndexedDB) and is never uploaded.
Live demo: https://apoloxdragon.github.io/WarThunder-Tool/
Two builds. The stable release (site, repo) and the dev build (site, repo), where in-progress changes are tried first, so expect rough edges there. They keep separate saved data in your browser.
Usage
Open wt-log-analyzer.html in a browser (or use one of the demos above). Keep it in the same folder as css/, javascript/ and dist/ if running locally — it loads its stylesheet and scripts as relative paths. (Opened straight from disk with file://, everything works except loading the example data, the offline cache and background compression (it falls back to the main thread); a local web server avoids all three.)
Paste one or more match reports — from "Victory/Defeat in the [Mode] ... mission!" through the "Session:" and "Total:" lines — into the text box and click Analyze. No local data? Click Load Example Data to try it with the sample log in example data/matches.txt (this only works on a server/hosted page, not when the file is opened directly from disk, since browsers block that fetch over file://).
Where the RP numbers come from
Each match report ends with a line like:
Session: 73cba8e001d7c28
Total: 25493 SL, 7388 CRP, 14776 RP
The tool uses the CRP figure as "Total RP" for the match, not the trailing "RP" figure. That third field is CRP plus whatever "Researching progress" (a module on a different vehicle) earned in the same match added together — the same battle performance credited toward two research targets at once, not two separate payouts. Using it as-is would inflate every average and every "expected RP per match" figure in the goal calculator.
Battle-type categories
By default, anything with "Tank Assault" in its mode name is split into its own category; everything else falls into "Random Battles". Add your own keyword → label rules (e.g. for Arcade or event modes) via the "Battle-type categories" section.
Import / Export
- Export HTML produces a themed, printable standalone report (only unique, deduped matches — no struck-through duplicate rows).
- Export Data (minimal) (toggle next to Export) produces a compact JSON file with short keys, meant for re-uploading later to continue a session. It holds summaries only, so it cannot be used for the per-match detail view.
- Export Raw saves the original match text of everything in your local archive as
.json.gz (small) — or .json from the Advanced view. This is the lossless backup: importing it rebuilds every summary and per-event detail from scratch, so an old export keeps getting richer as the parser improves.
- Import Report accepts any of the above, plus plain
.txt match logs. Raw files are re-parsed and validated on import; anything that isn't a recognisable match is ignored. Already-archived matches are skipped (matched by Session ID).
Advanced view
Open it with Advanced view → in the top bar (advanced.html); ← Basic view takes you back. The two views share the same saved settings and archive.
- Library — every archived match, with search, battle-type / win-loss filters, sorting, and totals for the current filter.
- Match detail — click a row marked ● to see net and earned SL, repair / ammo / respawn costs, a per-vehicle table, every scoring event (time, vehicle, weapon, target, SL and RP — hover an amount for its base / premium / booster split), flat rewards, research progress, used items and the raw log text. You can copy the raw text, export just that match, or delete it. Rows marked ○ are summary-only (they came from a minimal export or HTML report, which don't contain the original text).
- Insights — results by map, time / kills per vehicle, and which event types earn the most SL and RP.
- Storage — archive size and compression, browser quota, backup status, raw export / import, Clear duplicate matches (removes repeats, same Session ID, from your saved session and imported matches, keeping the first copy), and delete-all.
Local storage
Each match's raw text is gzip-compressed (native CompressionStream, no library) and stored in IndexedDB under its Session ID, together with a small summary. Because of that summary the Advanced view lists your whole library without unpacking a single match; a match is only decompressed when you open it, and the vehicle / event-type insights read the archive only when you open those sections. If IndexedDB is unavailable a small localStorage fallback (about 5 MB) is used, and if neither works the tool still runs — it just can't save detail. The Clear button only resets the current session; the archive is managed from the Advanced view's storage panel.
The archive exists only in your browser on this device: clearing site data deletes it and it doesn't sync. Export Raw regularly as your backup. The dev build uses its own database name, so it can't touch the stable site's data.
Colours and text
Pick one of eight colour presets with the swatches in the top bar — Blue, Amber, Slate, Forest, Crimson, Violet, Teal and the light Daylight — or open Customise… for the full panel (available in both views):
- change any of nine colours: background, panel, panel 2, border, text, dim text, accent, win and loss (each row says what it changes);
- choose a font style (monospace, sans-serif, serif) and text size (small, medium, large);
- save your own presets (rename, delete; 20 by default, up to 100 if you accept the warning) and export / import them as a file;
- see a readability check for every pair: 4.5:1 or better is good, 3–4.5:1 is weak but allowed, under 3:1 is refused. A refused set simply waits — it applies by itself as soon as every pair passes, so you can move from a dark look to a light one one colour at a time;
- preset names use English / Spanish letters by default (a setting allows others).
Everything applies instantly and is remembered in this browser — your saved look is applied before the page first paints, so reloading or switching between the Basic and Advanced views never flashes the default Blue; exported HTML reports use your colours. An optional tour ("? How this works" in the panel) explains each part. Design notes: docs/colour-customisation.md.
Security and robustness
The tool reads text you paste or import, so nothing from a log or file is trusted:
- Escaping. Every value taken from a log, an import or saved settings is HTML-escaped before it is shown; the category editor and exported reports included.
- Content-Security-Policy. Both pages declare a policy that blocks inline scripts, plugins,
<base> tags and form posts, and only allows this site's own files — so even a missed escape could not run code. Exported HTML reports carry their own policy with a fresh random nonce per export.
- Imports are rebuilt, not trusted. Every imported match is re-created from validated fields (real Session ID, clipped text, finite bounded numbers); malformed entries are skipped and counted rather than aborting the import.
- Limits. Lines are cut at 2,000 characters, one archived match at 256 KB, an imported file at 150 MB, and a
.gz import may unpack to at most 128 MB (a tiny "gzip bomb" is refused while unpacking, without being expanded). Real logs are far below all of these (longest line 175 characters, largest match 8.5 KB).
- Linear-time parsing. Patterns are bounded so crafted input can't make the parser stall.
- Tamper-tolerant settings. Saved settings are validated when loaded; corrupted or hand-edited values fall back to defaults instead of breaking the page.
- Names that look like code. Lookups keyed by names from logs use prototype-free maps, so a map or vehicle called
constructor is just a name.
- Nothing leaves your device. The pages make no network requests beyond loading their own files (and the optional example data).
Documentation
Full user documentation — getting started, every feature, tips and tricks, troubleshooting, privacy, how it works — is in docs/. For a single page with a sidebar open docs/index.html (on the hosted site: the docs/ address next to the app). It is generated from the Markdown pages with node tools/build-docs.js; the test suite fails if it is out of date.
Tests
tests/ holds a Playwright-based suite (parser, Basic view, Advanced view, storage, security, colours, theme flash, offline, build, performance) plus a pre-change baseline recorded before the security and performance work, and a comparison report of the current code against it. See tests/README.md. The app itself stays dependency-free.

Development
Still vanilla HTML/CSS/JS with no dependencies and no package.json, but the pages now load bundles (dist/) instead of ~15 separate scripts, because on a slow connection every file is a round trip (see the low-end report). The bundles are plain concatenations of javascript/*.js — nothing is minified or rewritten.
node tools/build.js # after editing anything in javascript/: rebuild dist/, the ?v= hashes in the HTML, and sw.js
node tools/build.js --watch # rebuild automatically while you edit
node tools/build.js --check # change nothing; exit 1 if dist/ is out of date (what the tests use)
Commit dist/ and sw.js with your change — GitHub Pages serves them as they are. The test runner rebuilds them first and the build suite fails if they were stale, so forgetting is caught. (The order of files in each bundle is in tools/build.js: classic scripts share one scope, so order matters.)
The service worker caches the app after the first visit so return visits are instant on any connection and the app works offline. It is off on localhost (so edits are never hidden behind a cache) unless you run localStorage.setItem('wtSessionReadout.enableServiceWorkerLocally','true') in the console. A new version installs quietly and waits; the page shows "A new version is ready — Reload" and nothing changes mid-session. It only touches its own site's caches (wt-tool- on the stable site, wt-tool-dev- on the dev site), so the two never clean up each other.
Stable and dev are told apart by the URL, not by the files. Both sites live on one origin (apoloxdragon.github.io), so a browser would share their storage. WT_DEV (in javascript/appearance-core.js) is true when the path contains /WT-Tool-Dev/; merging Dev into main therefore cannot turn the stable site into the dev one, or the reverse. The dev site uses its own localStorage keys (wtSessionReadoutDev.…), IndexedDB database (wtSessionReadoutDev) and service-worker caches, and adds a banner, a [DEV] tab title, a red-cornered icon and a link to the dev repo (javascript/dev-mode.js, which only the dev site loads). Stable keeps the original names, so saved data stays put. To move data between them, use the raw export / import in the Advanced view.
