we're working on a code base we didn't start and that's not how it's been designed, so given that XML is a very reasonable way to go.

You're building a client-server system, aren't you? Then having some choice in intermediate data-exchanging formats makes sense, and would indeed help with the creation of additional clients, or even servers. Deal

AI Bots:
If you want to write an AI (and please, please do) then I would suggest you write it in the actual Nova code, rather than as a separate process.

Ideally there would be a plugin system for this so people could write AIs against an API in other languages

I guess what you mean is that any AI bot/client would greatly benefit from having access to the things the current Nova client (or server) can do, starting with all the maths, the processing of all the game's data, and everything. Deal

Perhaps a short-term fix could be to allow external processes to call or launch Nova (either the client or the server) with some kind of special parameters to get certain sets of results. Sherlock



So many Stars, so few Missiles!

In space no one can hear you scheme! Deal
