Description: OValue is a calculator designed to help players plan their account growth by optimizing resource pack purchases. The tool connects your metal production potential with the cost of buildings/research to determine the exact investment needed.

The workflow is simple:

1. Simulate Production: Instead of just checking your current stats, you can simulate how your daily Metal production changes by increasing mine levels, swapping player class (e.g., Collector), or upgrading Lifeform researches.
2. Determine Costs: You select the building/research you want to develop (or paste a requirement string from Oglight)
   
3. Optimize Purchase: The tool uses your simulated production data to calculate the most efficient combination of resource packs (and Dark Matter) required to achieve that goal, including an option for "Smart Rounding" to maximize value.

Feature List:

• Metal Calculator:
  • Scenario Simulation: Calculate daily production based on potential upgrades, class changes, and Lifeform bonuses.
  • Precise calculation based on universe speed, position, and items (no API support)
  • Supports all bonuses (Plasma, Geologist, Staff, Class, Lifeforms, Crawlers).
  • Saves the calculated production value to use as a baseline for pack value optimization.
• Pack Exchange Calculator:
  • Builder & Parser: Select items from a list or paste requirements text to get instant cost analysis.
  • Shop Optimization: Calculates exactly how many standard resource packs are needed to cover the cost.
  • Smart Rounding: Suggests efficient pack combinations (e.g., buying a larger pack instead of multiple small ones) if the price difference is within a user-defined threshold.
  • Financial Overview: Displays total MSU cost, total DM required, and total Euro cost based on current shop discounts.

Technical Enhancements

• Performance Optimization: Significant improvement in script execution time and overall page responsiveness.
• SEO & Structure: Enhanced metadata and site architecture for better visibility and indexing.
• UI/UX Refinement: Updated interface for a cleaner data display and improved mobile compatibility.

Pack Exchange & Calculation Logic

• Inventory Integration: Added input fields for Current Resources. The tool now calculates the exact delta needed between your current stock and the target cost.
• Merchant Integration: You can now specify the number of Merchants to be used, with their DM cost automatically factored into the total financial overview.

RiV-

Hi, it's been about a month since I requested approval, and no one has responded. Considering that this isn't an active tool, but a passive one, and that it doesn't modify the game, I expected a response quickly.
