Calculator Built in

Can we have a built in Calculator?

To work out cost for calculating:
MS Upgrades
Unit Production increases
Planet Upgrades
Covert levels

I know there are existing Calculators, however the reason I am asking for this is, if it was built into the game then formulas should be kept upto date, I have also requested one for the ascended server.

Re: Calculator Built in

Ingame calculators would take up quite a lot of additional space on the page. Thoughts about cluttering, confusing people and the effect on mobile users come to mind.

It's also not, imo, necessary. 2-3 of the offsite calcs are perfectly up to date, both for main and ascended.

What is the reasoning, aside from you being too lazy :P, for cluttering up our ingame pages ? :smt115

Re: Calculator Built in

Sometimes instead of the game saying "not nough resources", depending on what you buy, itll return "not enough naq! Xxx available yyy needed" - i think MS upgrades do this.

So, insteadmof a calculator i propose a very, very simple idea; seeing as the game already has tomcalculate how,uch the upgrade costs, then compares it to the amount available, why not just output the total cost to the player? It is one ofmthe most simple, and basic lines of code and its a single line to change.

S if you want to figure out how much something costs, put your naq away, type in how much upgrade you want and it returns not enuff money bro, your broke ass needs 400T
