Kokua is customizable Trade Wars 2002 assistant software. It is capable of being fully customized to the user's preferences.
The project's initial focus is data visualization and mining, making it easy to explore and analyze data. The project's primary objective was to build an open-source and Linux-compatible TW2002 helper to address issues working with the J-TWAT source code. Although J-TWAT is outstanding, it sacrificed code organization to speed up development, making it difficult to develop upon.
Kokua is a completely rewritten version that borrows many of J-TWAT's benefits, like stream lexing triggers. To encourage development, it divides functionality cleanly and pushes as much code as feasible into external scripts. Although JavaScript is the default programming language, Kokua can be modified to accommodate several additional programming languages. It has also segregated all Trade Wars-related code from the primary application to help other text-based games or applications.
Kokua aims to create a starter pack, unlike SWATH or TWXProxy, which have significantly more features. Kokua will concentrate on integrating with scripting proxies like TWXProxy rather than scripting. Another feature relies on customized reports, encompassing port pairs, to give an exceptional gaming experience.
With Kokua, users can easily customize every screen, enabling them to tailor their interface to their specific needs. The XML user interface files define each screen, so it is incredibly user-friendly. There's no difference between scripts and application behavior for all actions, making it incredibly user-friendly.
Sector visualization is customizable, making it effortless to browse and analyze data. XPath-like engine answers queries quickly, and Kokua has a unified chat interface that can support other protocols such as IRC and IM. Users can quickly view game metrics with the statistics display. Macro recording and playback are simple, and scripts can develop and control complicated GUI forms. The software is even capable of auto-update with executable files (when used with WebStart).
Kokua's latest release has addressed significant stability issues and improved its TWXProxy integration. Pair port trading and Steal-Steal-Move (SSM) can now be executed in a single click. The sector map is now more precise and stable, and the software is easy to install.
