Does the journal contain warnings?

I have been thinking about writing a small Python script (programming language - not the ship!) to control my MiLights under different circumstances.

I have no idea what the journal contains, does it have things like when weapons are deployed or if the ship is overheating?

I would love to have it so that when the weapons deploy the lights go red, over heating lights go flashing orange, hyperspace - blue(ish), landed - white etc.

Dunno if that is possible!

It quite possibly.
I think eddiscovery ( https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthrea ... DDiscovery )
has the function to read and display the log in a straight table format.
Should be a quick way of seeing what it collects and if it works.

Been a while since I checked but was intrigued by the fact the log seemed to also include every lifer of fuel you scoop at any given slurp.

And full lat / long coordinates for when you land on a planet etc.
I think Ihave seen heat warnings as well but not sure.

Had a poke around in mine.

There is quite a bit, I see most of what you want, there are for instance separate tracking for supercruise entry, and SC exit, and heat warnings, but no real specifics on them.

I do not see an event from deploying weapons, but there is for shields breaking and reforming.
Here's a log excerpt from last night:
