I'm feeling pretty thick as I can't see it and hence none of the event loot or boss loot options do anything for me, they are all blank.

Help out a stupid person and point me in the right direction please......

Scroll it down and you can see the sync button

ha ha OK now I am worried. You're going to have to spell it out in words of one syllable. Scroll down which screen? I have scrolled every screen in the app that will scroll and there is no sync button that I can see. The event buttons when pressed give screens that do not scroll.

Use excel... units counts are not available for the app to use... if you don't like it delete the app and stop complaining :P

Helped me with my upgrade planning no end. Thing is I don't own a Laptop as don't really need one. So if it can't be done on an iPhone I'm stuffed lol.

I have 3980 units, all of which have been updated in the app. Its a little time consuming, but there isn't much else to do when your camping.

Update - just to update the toolkit with the latest files.

Prepare loot - this function will prepare the boss list and loot list. Loot list is invisible now till I finished some testing with maverick. But if u are keen to see, u can find the loot_combined.plist in the toolkit documents folder for more info.

Backup army - to export all inventories from toolkit to a csv file. This is for you to email and work on your inventory via excel.

Restore army - to put the updated inventory back into toolkit. Do not change the file name, id and quantity column name.

Khim, I haven't filled in the inventory in the toolkit, but if I understand this correctly, I could make an export of my (empty) Toolkit inventory to get the right format/template. Then copy all the inventory data from my own inventory spreadsheet into this format and "Restore Army". Is that right?

Yes. That's how it should work.

Good, thanks, one more question (so far..)
How do I put the updated sheet back into the toolkit. I.e. where do I save the file?

I've noticed that some of the upgrade times for a few buildings (and the costs, too) are not correct. These are the ones that are preceded by a symbol that I can't quite make out, but I assume mean that they are an estimate (and the times have an asterisk after them). For example, the upgrade time for the level 5 nano is 114 hours, not the shorter time listed. The diamond mine also has incorrect times.

Most info were gathered from war priest file. Those denoted with * were estimated, so PM me know if u have the actual upgrade cost or duration for the wrong ones or estimated. I will add them in and release in the next version.
