Victoria 3 save files data analytics notes

The idea is to feed data from vi3 save files to some streaming system like Kafka + kSQL, slice and dice that data into a wide set of dimensions and provide some high-level dimension view on an entire economics flow

For example - create a graph of resources to materials to consumer products and calculate various money flows

The first window should be a graph of all resources with all ingress and egress profitability if possible to get a picture of an economy of a country

• It would be good to see that % of $ consumers income is spent on it
• Get the number of open vacancies per state or type of building
  • the per type of building can be shown via the building list table
