Greetings, esteemed heroes!

In a nutshell
I need a program that can extract information from a save file about the number and composition of monsters on a location and display it in a clear format.

Detailed application (using the Plane of Earth location as an example)
I enter the portal and save the game. Now I need to find out, without leaving the location, how many monsters are currently present and what types, or more specifically (in this example), what is the population of "resource-rich" monsters (these are Earth Elementals of all three tiers, Demolishers, and large and medium Boulders). So, I enter the portal, save the game, assess the "resource richness" of the location; I enter the portal again, save the game again, and re-assess the "resource richness" of the location - and so on, until I decide that I have enough data.

Expected benefits
I will be able to compare the results of visiting the location, choose the most "resource-rich" save from all the saves I've made, and start clearing out the area.
On some other locations, I want to compare similar saves to determine the amount of experience I will gain from clearing the area.

Additional information (optional reading)
I play solo; I started fighting only after my main hero - who is a necromancer - became a grandmaster in the Learning skill. The first battle took place in the Shadowspire area, where on the twelfth minute of our friendly encounter, a Yaardrake met its demise. Here's what happened: at the Guild of Bounty Hunters, we took on a contract for a Great Wyrm, and the most readily available creature for this contract was a Yaardrake, as it was always hanging around in its own cave without any companions. First, using the Wand of Paralysis, borrowed from Gethric Mercutura, the hero cast paralysis on the dragon, and then, being a grandmaster of water magic and possessing the Ring of Fusion, he gradually defeated the opponent with the Water Blast spell.

But, I seem to have gotten carried away and digressed.

My request
If anyone has ever seen a similar program, please share the link, and I will be grateful in advance.
