I like the new SCID - whereby you can set an emoji and color. When you have multiple accounts, keeping track of which is the next most urgent one, is tricky. Typically I have a file to maintain that - but thats not useful when I am away from my desktop.
Now, these ideas are almost "QOL" ideas - which I would put in the ideas sub-forum, but, at the same time, they are not well thought out. So I thought it worth starting a thread to attract ideas.
When you have multiple accounts, different things become important to you:
- am i close to being able to upgrade a hero?
- how is my clan games timer going - am i about to run out?
- which base has 1 or more builders free, or coming free?
- how many resources do i have (gold/elix/dark)?
- "n out of m" for current rewards games
I'm using color codes for some of the above - eg everything is a green-chicken, but i make the color orange, when within range of an upgrade; or I use purple, to indicate "need attention" (such as 4/5 on the clan games Wallbreaker).
I doubt SCID will ever be extended to have more details. Gold/elix/dark, isnt available in the developers API - not sure why. Of course, the amount you have varies quickly, over time. But, even a saved version of g/e/d and maybe an extrapolation (interpolation) would be helpful.
Another idea is to simply allow annotations or flags on the clan status screen - ability to highlight items with personal notes.
I do have a script which collects my towns details, so I can keep track of the next hero upgrade. I havent bothered to make it graphical. And it cant do those things not exposed by the API. (And, a shame to use another computer, instead of just clash).

Thats a small sample of my script, telling me where I am. (The "0/nnn" tells me how much dark I need, but I havent
annotated how much I actually have, unless its the right time of the month [eg approaching month end])
One can dream, and interested if/how others solve this problem
(If anyone is interested in the script, I can put it up in github).
