Resource Flow

Resource Flow

Edit game-resource tables and see what happens at each tick.

Resource Flow is a small offline browser tool for game designers working with constant resource rates and threshold unlocks. Enter starting amounts, storage caps, sources and drains, then run your model and follow each step in a chart and trace.

In the included example, 8 XP per second reaches the 100 XP threshold at 12.5 seconds, opening an ongoing source of 20 gold per second. With a 0.5-second step, the first 10 gold appear at 13 seconds. The trace shows the gate reading the XP amount at the start of each step. You can inspect that timing directly without setting up spreadsheet trace formulas.

Included

• Editable resource and flow tables with optional thresholds.
• Resource chart, relationship view and step trace.
• Requested and actual flow quantities, shortages and discarded storage overflow.
• Local model JSON save/reopen and trace CSV export.
• XP reward example and written update rules.

Unzip the full download and open resource-flow.html with JavaScript enabled. Tested in Linux Chromium; other browsers and operating systems remain unverified. Save your edits before closing or resetting; there is no autosave.

The XP reward demo lets you change run duration and step length and inspect the example's chart and trace. Editing resources and saving your own models require the full download.

Limits

Quantities may be fractional. Gates read amounts at the start of each step, and smaller steps can change unlock timing. The tool does not model upgrade purchases, resource conversion, formulas, random events or player behavior, and does not import engine or other simulator files. The relationship view describes table connections; it is not a drag-and-drop graph editor. This tool helps inspect the arithmetic you entered; it does not predict fun or guarantee balanced gameplay.

The purchaser may use and modify the tool for personal or commercial game-design work. Your model files and trace outputs may be shared and used commercially; the tool itself may not be redistributed or resold. See the included licence for full terms.
