Expenditure Calculator

[Poison Arrow]

I remember being frustrated that this was not in Shogun, I'm amazed they still haven't added it. When youare cruising around aloting money to be spent that year, other than keeping track in your head of how much you intend to spend, you are lost. A simple addition to the money page woudl be easy, you can even open that right next to the building or unit queues. As you alot money, it would appear and tally it for you.

This is a vital aspect of the game and to make you bring up both queues, scroll through and count manualy is lame. You could even add a hot key that brings up a financial advisor. To help new players get aquainted with the what is wisa and what is not. For that matter the idea of a bunch of court advisors, (hehe, similar to simcity) would be very benificial to new players. As they got accustomed to what they were being told they could not use them anymore. They should not pop up, you should have to choose to speak with them.

Whoops I worded that kind of oddly. WHen you start spending the money page would appear automatically. If it was open, by your choice, you would see the money tally appear.

would NOT appear automatically, geez. It's early, sorry.

What annoys me is there is no way to group certain provinces in a build queue. You could allocate say 4 provinces to infantry 2 to cavalry 1 to royal kights 2 to agents and another 4 to shipbuilding. Selecting say menue 1 brings up the infantry province. It get really annoying after a while having to laboriously go through provinces to find the correct one for building gah.

Very nice idea Poison Arrow. I'd like to add to that a build priority rather than a simple north-to-south approach. Some things I definity want to build, others I'll build when I've got the extra florin.

Oh, you mean in an instance of not having enough cash? It uses a North to South scheme huh?

good idea, maybe you should make a poll........nooo, i was kidding not another poll do you by any chance have a .com forum ID? if so, maybe you could make a post concerning this there?.... just a thought.
gregoshi's priority idea is good as well, i hate it when you run out of money, and some really stupid building gets started up in scotland when a key startegic building gets left behind in wessex, even just a little button in the building queue, where you can move the priority from 1 to 3, defaulting at 3 (the lowest) and being able to move it up to one if desired.
