    How long left chief (builder)

    I know this is a small tweak and you can currently roughly see how long remaining upgrades take. However, it would be nice to see a countdown type feature in the King and Queen tab when they are upgrading (similar to that in the research laboratory), just so that you know exactly how long is left. Just might help for planning wars and timing your shields etc.

    Your views as ever welcome below...

    Well yes it is not 100% necessary in the sense the game can still play. However rounding down to the nearest hour is actually misleading when it comes to synchronising with shields and wars. I know an easy solution to the latter but that would be "hot potatoes." In the meantime I would like this feature.

    Builder lag would mess up any detailed timing anyway though, so an exact time is what would be misleading. Shields (unless bought) would show you the nearest minute, and war search takes time. Plus it is quite selfish to try to match a war to a single persons desire to attack as soon as the bell rings.

    Builder lag? whats that?

    It's quite intersting that you can see an idea as a selfish one when it would be available to all to use as they see fit, and my point is not about when I can attack first - that's why there is 24 hours I'm talking about when I can next make myself available as soon as possible for the next war for the good of the clan as a whole, actually.
