    TOOL DESCRIPTION


    OValue Exporter is a userscript that collects empire production data from OGame

    and synchronizes it with the OValue web application (ovalue.net), a suite of

    calculators for mine production optimization, resource pack planning, and shop

    item management.


    The script reads data passively as the user navigates standard OGame pages —

    no automated page requests, no gameplay interaction. Collected data is stored

    locally in Tampermonkey's secure storage and transferred to OValue exclusively

    via the browser's localStorage API when the user visits ovalue.net. No data is

    ever sent to external servers.

    Synchronization:

    data is transferred to the web app via localStorage and a custom DOM event

    [+] Manual export to clipboard (JSON format) for manual import into OValue

    [+] Data persistence across sessions using Tampermonkey GM_setValue/GM_getValue

    [+] Language auto-detected from OGame interface content

    [+] Language preference synchronized from OValue web app settings via bridge


    API USAGE

    Yes, the script uses two OGame endpoints:


    Endpoint: /api/serverData.xml

    Purpose: Fetch universe name and economy speed

    Trigger: Once per page load on Overview, only if not already cached


    Endpoint: ?page=standalone&component=empire

    Purpose: Read mine levels, planets, crawler counts, active items

    Trigger: Only when user manually navigates to the Empire page


    Expected request frequency:

    - /api/serverData.xml: at most once per Overview page load, skipped if cached

    - Empire page: passive read only when user navigates there manually


    The script never initiates page navigations or automated requests.

    It only reads the DOM of pages the user visits during normal gameplay.


    UI MODIFICATIONS

    The script makes the following additions to the OGame interface:


    1. Navigation menu entry:

    A new "OValue" item is appended to the left sidebar navigation (#menuTable),

    styled to match the existing menu. Clicking it toggles the data panel.


    2. Floating data panel:

    A panel positioned to the left of the game sidebar, containing collection

    status, officer summary, planet list, and action buttons.

    The panel does not overlap or modify any existing OGame UI elements.


    No existing OGame interface elements are modified, hidden, or replaced.

    🔷 OValue Exporter — Update v3.9.0


    Hi everyone! New version of the OValue exporter, with an important fix for OGame 13:


    🐛 Important fix (OGame v13)

    With OGame version 13, the old method the script used to read mine levels and Lifeform data stopped working. The script now uses OGame's official External Data Export API: it pulls the data for all your planets in a single request, simply by opening the game. More reliable and lighter on the server.


    ✨ New: Alliance Class

    The script now also detects your alliance class (Warrior / Trader / Researcher) and passes it to OValue. If your alliance is Trader, the calculator automatically applies the +5% production bonus. You'll find it in the panel, under the Overview section.
