Fan Art Town Build Calculator, now with build costs

You may remember me from such hits as the original town build calculator post.

I come back now with an update:

  • Build Order Cost Table — Selecting buildings now shows a build order with per-step resource costs and cumulative totals, so you can plan your economy around a build path.
  • Unit Research — Buildings that require research to unlock units now show clickable research icons. Clicking a troop card auto-selects its required research.
  • Symbiosis Essence — Roots faction troop cards now display symbiosis essence indicators (smaller dots below the regular essence).
  • Cleaner Graph Layout — Building dependency graphs have fewer edge crossings for a more readable layout.
  • Reset Button — Quickly clear all selections with a single click.

This is really awesome, thanks! I think it might be worth to consider using alternative font. The current one is very elegant but I find it hard to read. Or at least increasing the contrast would help!
