Chart Builder

This page is User Guide. It explains how to build and reuse custom charts.

Overview

Chart Builder lets you create a custom chart from the available metrics and apply it to the Charts dashboard without changing any stored run data.

When to Use This

  • You want to chart a value that is not listed in the default chart list.
  • You want to combine multiple related lines on one chart for comparison.
  • You want to save a named snapshot so you can return to the same custom chart later.
  • You want to save a reusable Chart Builder setup and edit it later.
  • You want to confirm whether a metric is available before you export or compare it.

How to Use

  1. Select Charts in the navigation.
  2. Select Chart Builder.
  3. In Step 1 — Metrics, select one or more metrics to chart.
  4. Review any constraint or availability messages shown for the metric selections.
  5. In Step 2 — Chart settings, select the chart style (Line, Area, Bar, Scatter, or Donut) and the X-axis mode (Time or Metric vs metric).
  6. If Aggregation is available, select Sum or Average.
  7. (Optional) In Step 3 — Comparison, select a comparison mode when you want an additional line or grouping.
  8. Select Apply to dashboard to add the custom chart to the dashboard.
  9. (Optional) Use Saved charts to load a previously saved Chart Builder entry.
  10. (Optional) Enter a name and select Save chart builder entry to save or update the current setup.
  11. (Optional) Select Delete saved chart to remove a saved entry you no longer need.
  12. (Optional) Select Save snapshot to save the current builder selections under a name.
  13. (Optional) Select Load snapshot to restore a previously saved chart configuration.

Example: Free Upgrades vs Coins Earned (Scatter)

  1. Select Charts in the navigation.
  2. Select Chart Builder.
  3. In Step 1 — Metrics, select Free Upgrades (Total) and Coins earned.
  4. In Step 2 — Chart settings, select Scatter and Metric vs metric.
  5. Select Apply to dashboard.

How to Read the Results

  • The preview and the applied chart reflect your current Charts filters (date window, tier, preset, and other options).
  • Constraint messages explain when a selection cannot be shown for the current scope (for example, missing values or not enough runs).
  • Time uses dates or run labels on the X-axis, while Metric vs metric compares two selected values per run.
  • Aggregation controls whether per-day values are summed or averaged before charting.
  • If a chart shows multiple lines, the legend describes what each line represents for the comparison you selected.
  • If a chart shows gaps, at least one run in the scope is missing the underlying value for that point.
  • Saved charts store your Chart Builder selections so you can reuse and adjust them later.
  • The full list of metrics shared by Chart Builder and Explore is available in Metrics Reference.

Notes & Limitations

Note Chart Builder only uses values that exist in your imported Battle Reports and other available selections on the Charts page.

Note Bot, Guardian Chip, and Ultimate Weapon run-usage metrics are planned but not populated yet. For now, related totals come from Battle Report metrics where available.

Note Saving a snapshot stores the configuration you selected. It does not store a copy of your data.

Caution If your current scope has very few runs, some comparisons may be unavailable or hard to interpret.

Advanced Usage

  1. Use Save snapshot to create a small set of named custom charts you reuse often (for example, one per event, tier, or farming goal).
  2. When a chart looks surprising, change only one setting at a time (a metric, a filter, or a comparison mode), then re-apply to confirm what changed.
  3. Compare Coins From Golden Tower against Coins earned to see how much your total coins track Golden Tower output.
  4. Compare Free Upgrades (Total) against Waves reached to see whether longer runs also include higher free upgrade totals.
