Awesome. Just heading home now, will have a look after dinner.

I see you have game.gl = GAME_TIME_ELAPSED in your schema (line 55 of http://pastebin.com/JWAMt6YL), but your console log doesn't show it getting recorded (line 73 of http://pastebin.com/cicmiJWa). You will want to double check this, as none of the data will be recorded if I add that field to the schema and you aren't sending it.

Thinking has changed recently, and we now recommend each inventory_item get its own slot, instead of concatenating them into a single list.

You should use the GetItemSlot function in the shared utilities file (https://github.com/GetDotaStats/stat-collection/blob/master/game/dota_addons/YOUR_ADDON/scripts/vscripts/statcollection/lib/utilities.lua#L54)

An example that may be helpful: https://github.com/LegendsOfDota/LegendsOfDota/blob/master/src/scripts/vscripts/pregame.lua#L333-L341

The rest looks good.

Here's your schema, please review the fields to make sure I didn't make a mistake.

Feel free to suggest changes!

Thanks! I fixed the game time thing and changed my code to use individual item reporting. Just pushed this up to Valve, so we'll see if it works right

[Diellan]

Yep that worked!

Is there a way to retrieve this data via an API call or something? I'd like to run some analysis on hero combinations and hero+item combinations.

[jimmydorry]

No, I usually just give a dump if someone wants it. If there is specific stuff you want, it's probably worth making a feature request. https://github.com/GetDotaStats/site/issues

Also, let's keep the issue open to keep Dota 2 Horde Mode schema stuff together.

[Diellan]

Alright. I'll want to wait until the schema has been up a week or so anyways to make sure I get good data, but then I'm going to want a full dump so I can do a bunch of different cross-analyses (team compositions, hero compositions, etc). Since the game mode can be played with anything from 1 to 5 players on 2 different maps with 5 different difficulties, any data I see that doesn't factor that in is almost useless.
