SABER Eagle Eye

Summary

Server-side battlefield telemetry: periodic JSON snapshots of players, AI groups, contact and threat, written to the server profile for external tools (AARs, dashboards).

Description

Eagle Eye is a small server-side telemetry mod. Activation is automatic: if the mod is loaded, it writes a battlefield snapshot to $profile:SABER/<world>_state.json every 10 seconds, on any mission and any map, with no setup. Optionally, place SABER_TelemetryComponent on any entity in World Editor to override the interval or group cap for a specific world.

Each snapshot carries: players (name, faction, position; only characters actually being walked count, a Game Master flying the camera does not), AI groups (faction, position, strength, in-contact flag, 0-1 threat measure), and the world name. Groups in contact are always listed first, so the group cap trims idle garrison, never the fight. Files carry a schema number; external readers reject unknown versions and tolerate missing or partial files by design.
What it does NOT do: nothing else. No gameplay changes, no AI changes, no UI, no network traffic. It only observes and writes. Vanilla APIs only, no dependencies, works with any game mode.

Built as the in-game half of SABER (Situational Awareness, Battlespace Evaluation and Reporting), a campaign tooling suite that generates OPORDs and AARs from live server data. Useful standalone for anyone who wants machine-readable server telemetry; the file contract ships in the repo (docs/STATE.md).

What it does NOT do: nothing else. No gameplay changes, no AI changes, no UI, no network traffic. It only observes and writes.

Compatibility: no dependencies, built entirely on base-game script APIs. AI and factions from other mods are picked up automatically (groups from any spawner, faction keys reported as the mods define them), and it is designed to run inside heavily modded servers. Works with any game mode built on the standard game mode base class, which should be all of them.
