Mastermind's In-Game Builder Idea (with LOADS of pictures!)

[Nchow]

Lol. What an amazing thread! Supercell gotta hire you.

That idea is cool!!! ILL SUPPORT IT 100%!

its getting hard to make a new designed base without that idea, good job mastermind...

By the way Mastermind.
Wouldn't it better if the, in your example, Townhall would disappear from the list of all things you can place instead of the "background turned from a bright blue color to a dull magenta". The list would be shorter and you don't have to scroll too much
Just a thought, what are the pros of the color changing?

I support this idea with 150%

I'd love seeing this in the new update, but if supercell decides to implement this they 'll need a good amount of time to code it.

This is going to be very helpful to re design my base

I won't redesign my village until it's implemented I have lvl 10 Townhall so it is a pain in the ♥♥♥ for me.

Great idea and realization! You saved SC alot of work

Anyways i have to bring up something and i am wondering why noone else realized that.

WHAT ABOUT THE ATTACKS on your base while being offline?

2 Points:

1: Im sure u can save alot of time while in the editor, but what if havent finished yet and let the ipad/iphone by side and return after 5 minutes?
Solution 1: everything returns to the layout it was before
Solution 2: all items that wasnt placed in that time, will be placed randomly around the map. -_- (Bad solution "resources")

2: NO SAVING POSSIBILITY! You said some users came up with a "good" point, so you can save editing and continue later.... so i can save my editing without placing my resources and if someone attacks me he will only find half of my base

whatchu say bra?

Thanks for the concerns and opinions Paperboi! As to your main question, you would not be able to USE a base design until it is 100% complete, which is why I put the meters at the top. I changed my opinion about being able to SAVE a Layou even if the design was not 100% complete, so you could work on it at different times, but again, you would not be able to use a layout unless every item has been placed to prevent bases with less items showing up (and I list the problems that would cause in the OP).

Unless SC made an autosave feature, you would manually have to click the Green Check Button to save your base, otherwise you wuld lose your progress if the game shut off or you exited out.

Thanks

You have misunderstood a little bit here. I hope I can clear thing out for you.

First of:
When you enter the editor, you don't change your village in realtime. This means that if you move something in the editor it doesn't moves in your village. ONLY after you have placed everything and pressed save your village will be updated.

If you save as an layout, your village will not be updated. It will look like it looked before you entered the editor. This means that an attacker won't only find half of your base

Now I can answer your points:
1. If you let your phone die or lay it aside for 5 minutes:
Either you progress will be lost. Or maybe auto saved as a "work in progress layout"

2. You can save your editing as a layout BUT you can't use it!

Thanks for helping me out by answering his question vinstic, you got it right 100% Really appreciate it!
