Hang on, doesn't this break the ability to search and sort resources through our third party programmes? That seems like pretty much the only way to actually locate anything worth having in the game...
Exporting that XML allows us to do the single most critical thing that the game does not itself do for us. Ultimately, I can see XML being redundant if the game itself can display and filter information about systems, but right now it's all but indispensable! This change seems to be like fixing your damp problem by burning the house down :p
Is there a middle path that lets us find resources but doesn't give away exploitable info?
