Thanks for the answers...
I didn't think about the host possibility to abuse it. I actually think it should be feasible to set it up in a way, that you need to provide your password, then export it in some plain text format.

Encryption code does not take ones pw into account. Actually i know encryption algorithm i dont know pw checking algorithm. Confused

Also, I think if you don't trust your host, you'll have to find some setup...

It is never about me trusting host. I have won games where some opponents cheats were barely hidden. Also, I have never accused someone in cheating. Cheaters i have met have always been weaker than me players. What I dont like is the probability that someone loses major battle and then spoils the whole game with foul accusations about host cheating. Evil or Very Mad
If you have once found out that you have invested 50-100 hours into a spoiled (by others) game then it makes you cautious too. Wink

Well, actually I didn't post the same question twice,

Techically you are right. Sorry. What i meant that you asked for exactly same answer twice. Yes, Wumpus, who has best knowledge of stars! file structures has made such a tool already. He also found solid reasons to not publish that tool. Nod
