I was reading one of the boards, and it was a poll and discussion on shop sizes. I noticed a few people questioning how much people must have spent getting their shop to size X, and a few people wondering how much their shop could hold, etc. It made me say to myself "I bet it's a really simple mathematical formula...I bet I could make a spreadsheet for it." So I sat down and made a small little spreadsheet. It doesn't do too much, it has two input cells for current shop size and desired shop size and formula cells to calculate:

1.)The amount of items each given shop size would hold
2.)The total amount of NP you have spent on your shop so far
3.)How much more NP you need to spend to get it to desired size
4.)The cost of the following upgrade for both current and desired shop sizes

As I said, not the most complicated thing in the world, but hey, I was proud of it. I attempted to upload it to the topic, but discovered I don't have permission to upload files. That makes sense, as I wouldn't expect random users to have that ability because then they could easily upload malicious files or something. I was just wondering if there was any way I could send this excel spreadsheet to a mod or someone who CAN upload it.

Also, I understand this little project of mine might seem too simple or too unnecessary to warrant a spot on Neocodex, but I thought it was pretty cool and figured I would ask about it.

Thank you for your time, whoever happens to read this. lol

hmm... you could take a screenshot of it, save it as a .JPG and then upload the photo Everyone can do that.

Sunnyneo already has all that.

But if you really want to upload it, send it to Google Docs and put the link here (make sure the conversation didn't break anything)/

No, it is fine. I just googled it and see what you are talking about. Our programs literally do the same thing, but mine is a spreadsheet rather than online, making their's superior. I should have known better and known it had already been done by someone somewhere. Thank you though.

lol....I'm not discouraged, it was worth a shot to try to contribute. I enjoy making spreadsheets like that. Always fun! Unfortunately, it seems that my skills to contribute are very limited and all possibilities have all already been done by someone. Ahh well...such is life. It is a shame my knowledge of computer programming is nada, I would love to help out here. lol

Don't feel bad., at least it is good practice.

Take a look at what I made months ago: http://spreadsheets....ZOMnUwSGc&hl=en

Anybody used to be able to edit but since it is public now, you won't be able to use it to its full potential (you could input the starting level, hp, and stats and it will get calculated from there).
