Add Card Count to Each Element https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=46259.msg1035394#msg1035394

I like to track my cards. You can't do much with the in-game inventory, and that's fine. We have spreadsheets and other fun tools that we build ourselves to handle this. Upgrading the in-game inventory system would be a pain.

However, there is one tiny change that would make this so much more comfortable.

If you display the card total for each element when viewing that element, I can more easily fix errors that I make when recording my cards.

At the moment, I have my spreadsheet** tell my my total card count, and I can look at Elements and see how many cards my account actually has nicely at the top of Your Deck / Manage Deck / Bazaar. Then, when I forget to record a card, or accidentally record a card on my spreadsheet, I will see that the totals don't match and can fix the problem.

However, solving that problem means going through each element and double checking every card count.

If you were to show the card count within each element, it would save a ton of time and effort. Hopefully this is a very minimal change that could have far reaching benefits. More players able to easily track cards mean more players invested in the game, sticking around longer, and hopefully donating to get that collection complete.

Even if this was only done for the Bazaar, where there is a ton of room in the lower left where you display current electrum, this would be a huge help.

Thank you for your time.

** I also make available a blank spreadsheet for others. It is a heavily modified version of suxerz's spreadsheet. Dragoon maintains a wonderful thread for those collecting 12 of each card.

That is a great idea! I wish for this feature all the time- it would make it SO much easier to track cards.

If there were 2 counts, 1 for unupped and 1 for upped cards, that would be even better and save a ton of time for every player when preparing his/her War application.
Roses aren't red, Violets aren't blue.
They are just a simulation, and so are you!

I think that's a great idea. When I track my cards, I keep a running total, a total per Element, and per Element split between unupped and upped. This would work just fine and definitely benefit War applications.
