AO2 LogReader Alpha 2 Release

Changelog:

• ⭐Add tweens to characters: fade in effect, use character icon to trace movement path
• ⭐Add globals.gd autoload which stores characters and a few globally accessible functions (Signal-Receiver system for ui elements only would be better, this should only be for data)
• ⭐Add Focus Mode - When enabled, only show characters in the area this character is located in. Multiple characters can be focused on.
• ⭐Add "toggled_focus" and "toggled_visible" signals on the character ui element
• ⭐Add back the button to display or hide invisible characters
• ⭐Add tooltips for all character list buttons
• 🐛Fix speakerArray having the FOLDER NAME added AFTER display name, resulting in FOLDER NAME taking priority in the interface instead of the other way around

Prerequisites

1. This tool currently only works on KFO-Server codebase, which includes the Killing Fever Online server that I host. Support for other codebases is considered, though it will need significant code overhauls.
2. You must have a GM client that has the option /remote_listen ALL enabled. Using that will give you full, complete logs of the entire session in every area. You can find your logs in Client Program Folder/logs/Server Name/2025-07-21 22-12-49 UTC.log, as an example - the log date and time is from when that client was first opened in UTC time zone.

Please note this is ALPHA SOFTWARE. Bugs and weird behavior should be expected! If anything goes wrong, some specific part of the software is unintuitive, you found any bugs or you have suggestions in mind, please head to the Issue Tracker and make an Issue on it! (you'll need to be logged in on GitHub to do so)

You can find the download BELOW!

(If you can't open the archive file, use WinRar or 7zip archiver software!)

AO2 LogReader - Lagless Live Edition!

This log-reading tool will make GMing so much easier.

Keeping track of people's movements live during session has always been kind of a pain - you have to rely on a tiny OOC window and constantly use /getareas to get where people are, and visually speaking it's really hard to process what's even going on.

That's where the LogReader comes in - this tool can connect to your log file, listen for any changes that happen, and move character icons around a map of your design, giving you clear, concise visual feedback to everyone's movements - at all times. It even works for post-session logs, too!
