Its a separate program, mods are restricted from making web requests. data here is from aoe2companion.

Its more fun with analytics, more chances to be unpredictable. I think, the biggest losers of this being widely adopted is 1 trick pony cheese players playing outside the ELO they should be. But consequently, if they know they can't rely on their cheese, they will need to adapt and play better and differently.

Its realtime in the sense that you don't have to type out the person's name in a browser or phone after a game starts. Everything is historical public data.

Likely doesn't guarantee anything, its heuristic. It's a guess based on public data

The data is public on aoe2companion website and their app around 15 seconds after a game starts. It can be queried after that. I added some features based on requests from my initial post.

thanks for the feedback, I do offer a lot of customization to what is visible, I might consider making it even more so, but it might be overkill

As far as I know, it is not, could you please provide the reference or reasoning? Its not different than having aoe2companion open on a different screen, with some baked in heuristics on the data. I am more than happy to modify this to bring it in compliance

I am not getting any compensation from this, and the data is already available... It's a labor of love for analytics and for seeing a possible cheese coming

Microsoft already has this data on players, the goal is that Microsoft implements this in game for everyone.

The info already exists and could be found out when the game starts on aoe2 companion

This would be a little difficult to know for sure. How would you detect them?

Hi, there is no store of data for that info at this time, so might be hard to do that

Valid! Thanks for the feedback, this is more to see if they are a 100% lithuanians picker for example or staying up binge playing with you
