Even though I’ve stopped working on the project, simply because I quit playing tribal wars, it’s nice to keep the code, and I think it might be able to help someone else who is working on a similar project. The following code is to be put into a class. It can be used to parse a report and chunk out the attacker’s name, attacker’s village, defender’s name, defender’s village, attack status, scouted resources, scouted mine levels and wall level. Not that useful for troops numbers. I’ve found that if you paste a text into Flash’s text field, all the tabs are removed. Hope someone can use this work to work on future Tribal Wars projects.  It’s fully functional and commented.
