Gemming to speed up Builders / Research Lab
I know assigning multiple builders to a project have been thrown out as an idea, so I have an alternative suggestion.
You can speed up barracks, can we speed up our builders? We can only finish a build, but doing so is pretty expensive when average build times are 10+ days. But another idea with this, speed up our research laboratory.
So a suggestion, maybe introduce a progress bar, and have a 24 hour build boost or something? But you can see where I am going.
I can only use elixir for three things, troops, walls and research. When I have to my lab doing an upgrade for 14 days, I just amass a tonne of elixir (even in this time of drought), and I can't do anything with it.
For 4 days I've had my elixir storages and collectors full. I can throw them into walls, but walls are kinda useless with jump + EQ spells. It's a waste. The 1k+ gems to finish is a bit of a tall order.
Bit of a loose suggestion, I know.
But you get the idea.
