It's going to get a lot easier to run #Lisien in the browser with the next release. It won't be the most performant way to do it, probably, and for the time being you'll need to use XML dumps of the database for persistence, though I've heard of ways to avoid that.

#Python #WASI lazyweb: is there a good, pure Python library I could use to store cookies? I guess I could compile SQLite in, if I have to, but it seems like needless overhead.

Released version 0.22.0 of Lisien, the life simulator engine for systemically complex games like those of Maxis or Paradox Interactive.

This release adds a proper, XML based export format. You can open files with the .lisien extension in any old decompressor, since they're just zip files, but now they have world.xml in them, describing the history of the game in a way you can edit with a text editor, and which Lisien can import into whatever database it happens to be running.
