Yes, I am! Why?

The link says "kampfsimulator":P

unfortunately i cant read german and despite pressing the union jack emblem it wont write in english. but useful tool anyway thankyou

I love this simulator!

Here I've got a few suggestions you to improve it:
1. Make it easier to view similar simulations based on troops you've selected. (Checkbox *with deselect-all option* next to the troopnames so you filter other simulations automatically on the homepage)
2. Make the (additional) results in losses gold-based. Calculate what all resources cost and add them up. Eventually cost/enemy hp or cost/enemy troop.
3. Make a "min" loss column in the hall of fame/suggestions section.
4. Your own simulations are immediately compared to other simulations with the same type (not amount) of troops. This way you can compare your own simulation with others without multiple tabs/ noting down what troops you loose and then filtering other simulations.
-> When you click 'Simulate battle', give people the comparison to other simulations without loosing their filled in form (and an option to adjust it).
5. For camps that require multiple waves, give the calculator the option to extract the opponents losses from their previous camp count + suggestions for the next attack.


In short: make sure people can compare their own options (troops) with other simulations, at all times.

I was about to say; list all the camps in a dropdownbox on the right, apparently you did that already just like I've imagined. Awesome!


Thanks for developing this!

Does anybody else have problems with the language selection? I updated the function which is responsible for the selection. Does it work now?

This shouldn't be the solution.

1. Make it easier to view similar simulations based on troops you've selected. (Checkbox *with deselect-all option* next to the troopnames so you filter other simulations automatically on the homepage)

What do you mean with a deselect-all option. Is it for the user units or the enemy units? You can filter the Hall of Fame by entering your own units.

2. Make the (additional) results in losses gold-based. Calculate what all resources cost and add them up. Eventually cost/enemy hp or cost/enemy troop.

I need some time to thnik about it. On the german forum I was asked to implement a function which makes it possible for you to enter your own prices. This would be necessary because the prices differ from world to world. All in all it'll take some more time to realise it.

3. Make a "min" loss column in the hall of fame/suggestions section.

There is a „min“ column if you click on (Fullsize) in the Hall of Fame. As there is not enough space for another column, I had to remove it from the table. But in my opinion the min. losses aren't that important, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

4. Your own simulations are immediately compared to other simulations with the same type (not amount) of troops. This way you can compare your own simulation with others without multiple tabs/ noting down what troops you loose and then filtering other simulations.
-> When you click 'Simulate battle', give people the comparison to other simulations without loosing their filled in form (and an option to adjust it).

There is a possibility to get back to the simulator. Just click on the user units in the column „Einheiten“.

I'm not sure if I got everything of this point, so please ask again, if I didn't get it.

5. For camps that require multiple waves, give the calculator the option to extract the opponents losses from their previous camp count + suggestions for the next attack.

This is planned. I imagine a new button or link next to the losses which makes it possible to fill the simulator with the survivors.

I love this simulator!

Thanks!

Yes, I used all languages, they work

Hi, Fenris!

Okay, thanks, but I'd like to read Hrothgar's answer as well. I hope I solved the problem with the language-selection function.

What do you mean with a deselect-all option. Is it for the user units or the enemy units? You can filter the Hall of Fame by entering your own units.

Now all the units are automatically selected. If you use only certain troops (one or two kind) you have to de/un-select all the other troops for every simulation. Just a small button would be awesome to start with empty checkboxes.


The checkboxes in my image should be empty in this situation since the 'Deselect all' checkbox is checked.
Also; 'Edit troops' function to edit enemy troops. Maybe that further improvements will make this option useless, but for now; I would love it!


Thanks for responding at my (and others) feedback.




Oh yeah; What does the 'Max. Value' column represent?

Great battle simulator. What i would love to see is a full translation of the battle system page, currently only the first part is in English, and an expanded sim to calculate casualties against the various adventure troop types. I don't yet understand how you know which troop is prioritised so I can apply that information for casualty planning in the adventures.

It would also be good to have the 250 unit general supported for making calculations on the test server.
