    Lightbulb Community Tool: LTQ Energy & Gold Calculator

    I made a tool for Modern War players to educate themselves PRIOR to diving into an LTQ event blindly.

    This tool will help you figure out how hard your wallet will be hit - hope it helps!

    PS: I recommend grabbing the total energy required for a given LTQ from one of SGT Rud's threads.

    Enjoy!

    Changelog:

    Dec. 12 2013

    - Added Maximum Energy field

    - Tool now accounts for players under 1000 total energy

    - Rounding errors have been corrected and should now display gold amounts properly

    - Total energy "naturally" regenerated prior to the end of an event is now displayed. This way you can gauge your potential progress into an event.

    - If your nation is NOT Iran, the Tool will display how much additional energy you could gain if you switched nations to Iran

    - Other various bug fixes

    Nice PB
    I've got that in Excel but this looks smooth.
    A thing to add is how many level ups you expect and what your max energy bar is.
    Also make a round up on gold for 20 gold per 1000 energy.

    I thought the same thing Dansgek on the rounding up. Ran out of time for tonight. I've had something similar in Excel for a while but felt like making it more available for others.

    Thank you for the constructive criticism... I will make improvements to it soon, I'm sure.

    Nice appearance. I do like it. And your a good buddy of mine, so I wont hold back.

    1.) This type of calculator has already been presented in the Commander Tool put out several months ago. Though it doesn't look as fancy. Which informs me that lots of people really haven't investigated the commander tool past the boss health tracker. Also informs me I should present a new thread better labeling whats in the commanders tool.

    .) Your calculations do not include an estimated total of gold required for individuals still under 1000 energy cap. If those people used your calc, it would tell them they need less gold than needed.

    3.) Gold refills are purchased in values of 20 and you need to round up. My tests I put in to this calc, estimate my refills at 28 = 556 gold, when in fact it would require 580.

    Judging by the times you posted this thread, and you groupme replys, I assume your sleeping. When you wake up, check you PMs.
    Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base. All men are afraid in battle. The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty. Duty is the essence of manhood.

    Hey Rud thanks for the feedback. Yeah I caught the rounding, ran out of time to fix that last night. I'll get that changed soon enough.

    I hadn't thought about folks with less than 1000 total energy... then again, they don't seem like likely candidates to be finishing LTQs. I can make that addition though as well!

    Regarding your commander tool, it's great and we all appreciate the work you put in.
