Some bash for headers only:

Edit:
Datafiles are now listed here, the files are now gzipped, and the new base url for the datafiles is 'http://data-root.illyriad.co.uk/' instead of 'http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/data_downloads/'.

In case anyone missed this.

Is there an official data file somewhere with the chat logs, or is that just something Illytools does?

A landing page would be great. Assuming you know a little PHP, you can get the file's size and last-modified date without too much hassle:

$mtime = date("r",filemtime ($infile));
$size = filesize($infile);

where $infile is the url of the file you're thinking of reading in.

You could run such a script at intervals to see how often it's modified... not exactly what you're looking for, but it approaches such.

Has there been any progress with this issue? Any new data files or tools?

I really can't explain myself, it's seems to be a fatal flaw :(   I shouldn't have said it wouldn't parse, you are right, of course it will.  I don't think the XML (or rather the DTD inferred from the XML) will enforce the structure the developers want because it allows an alliance element to be nested inside an alliance element (same for roles).  It only matters if someone is looking at my inferred DTD and trying to understand the data and doesn't realize that isn't possible.  If it is possible, then I don't know what that would mean in terms of the data and game.  If it isn't possible to nest alliance elements inside alliance elements then I haven't a clue how to represent that with a DTD structure to help people understand the data hierarchy (which was all I was trying to do for myself).

I was looking at the datafiles and trying to decide if there is anything that hasn't already been done with the information.  While doing so I pulled out the following guesses at their structure.  Here is that information in DTD format for the XML files and the delimited fields for the delimited file if it's helpful to anyone.

*************************************************************************
************************** datafile_worldmapl.txt ***********************
*************************************************************************
delimited text file with '|' delimiters.

The fields are:
GeoID
X
Y
Wood
Clay
Iron
Stone
Food
TerrainSpecificTypeID
TerrainCombatTypeID
RegionID

Now that Trade v2 is out, is there an additional XML file detailing Trade v2 locations?
