Testing your base.

When I first started playing c.o.c. I had no I idea what kind of base design I should have or what kind of troop combos work best.
There needs to be a way where you can learn to design a solid base while also learning to attack effectively and efficiently.
My suggestion is that we should be able to test the bases we make, by attacking them ourselves. Like a simulator, you won't lose any troops in the attack nor would you lose resources or trophies. So essentially all you get from the attack is knowledge in both offense and defense.
If we used this tool we would eventually see all players developing stronger bases and becoming better attackers.
Thank you

Side note: I did read "simulator" on a sticky, it didn't explain what was meant by it so I just made my own thread.

It lets people set there base to either there enemies base in clan wars then effectively practice attack there enemies base till they are satisfied that they have the perfect attack then do the real attack and get the best result . This is not how the game is meant to be played

It would be better if your clan could attack you for no monetary gain.

Make your base into whatever base you want to revenge or attackin in war, and test out twelve billion attacks on it.

Thank you for your answer I will defend.
The solution is this:disable during wars.
Well what if they have 2 or more accounts? one would be in war while the other is copying, if successful they get at most 6 stars. but how things are right now is if a person has two accounts they'll most likely be in the same clan, possibly earning 12 stars in war. So If anything it would discourage such a thing. And honestly to think someone will go through the trouble of copying every single base they attack (mostly not knowing where the traps are.) is impractical.
