Player User Guide

Overview

theTowerStats turns your imported Battle Reports into Battle History tables, Charts, and collection dashboards so you can review what happened in past runs and track the progress you want to save.

When to Use This

  • You want to keep a searchable history of your runs.
  • You want charts that reflect only the runs you imported.
  • You want to record progress for Cards, Ultimate Weapons, Guardian Chips, or Bots.
  • You want to compare two runs or two time windows without changing your saved data.

How to Read the Results

  • Battle History shows one row per imported run, with filters and sorting to narrow what you see.
  • Presets are optional labels you create to group runs and cards for review (unlocked via the in-game Lab Research “Card Presets”). The game currently allows 5 presets, and this app lets you save more.
  • Charts reflect the current filters you selected (date range, tier, preset, and optional overlays).
  • Coins/real hour and other derived values are computed from the imported run text and displayed as numbers you can compare across runs.

Notes & Limitations

⚠️ Note This user guide avoids strategy advice. Values shown are factual outputs based on your imports and saved progress.

⚠️ Note Reference names and descriptions are based on the The Tower Idle Tower Defense Fandom Wiki (external): https://the-tower-idle-tower-defense.fandom.com/wiki/The_Tower_-_Idle_Tower_Defense_Wiki

⚠️ Note In-game preset selections can change mid-run. In the app, presets are static labels you apply for grouping and filtering.

⚠️ Note Your data is scoped to your signed-in account. Other users on the same instance cannot see or modify your runs or progress.

⚠️ Note If a Battle Report does not contain a label (for example, a value was not present in the text), the app does not invent it.

⚠️ Note Values shown are calculated at the time you view the page and may change if your data changes.

⚠️ Note Coins/real hour uses the Battle Report’s “Real Time” value. Cooldowns and durations in collection pages are shown in seconds and are based on external wiki tables.

⚠️ Note The interface uses a dark theme by default. Chart legends, tooltips, and focused form controls stay dark for readability.

⚠️ Note If there has been a new deployment since your last sign-in, a message banner appears once to highlight the latest update.

⚠️ Note The Getting Started page includes a short summary of the latest changelog entry with a link to the full changelog.

Advanced Usage

  1. Select Comparison on the Charts page.
  2. Select two runs to compare, or select two date windows.
  3. Review the delta values to see how the selected metric changed between the two selections.
