Flag Cost

Flag Cost tells your alliance how many more KvK flags you can afford to build with the crystal you have right now, and optionally how many you could build by a target date if you keep producing crystal. It walks the real per-flag cost table flag by flag, so the count it gives you matches what the game will actually charge. It is built for R4s and R5s planning a flag push.

How it works

You tell the command how much crystal your alliance has and how many flags it has already built. Starting from your current flag number, it spends crystal one flag at a time using the in-game cost table until the crystal runs out, then reports:

• Additional Flags Built - how many more flags the crystal covers.
• Total Potential Flags - your current flags plus the additional flags.
• Remaining Crystal - what is left after building.

Flag costs rise as your flag count grows. The early flags (1 to 20) are free, then each band of flags gets more expensive, all the way up to flag 430. The command knows the cost of every flag up to that cap.

Projecting future crystal

If you want to plan ahead, add both end_date and hourly_production. The command works out how many hours are between now and your target date, multiplies by your hourly production to get projected crystal, and adds that to your current crystal before doing the flag math. The result then also shows a Projected Status section with your starting crystal, production rate, target time, projected gain, and projected total.

Both fields or neither

end_date and hourly_production only work as a pair. If you provide one without the other, the command asks you to add both. The target date must be in the future and in UTC, using the format HH:MM DD/MM/YYYY (for example 14:00 25/12/2025).

Commands

/flag cost

Calculate how many more flags you can build with your crystal.

Option	Type	Required	Description
crystal_amount	text	Yes	Current total crystal available to the alliance (for example 2,000,000).
current_flags	number	Yes	Current total number of flags built by the alliance (for example 50).
end_date	text	No	Target future date and time in UTC, format HH:MM DD/MM/YYYY.
hourly_production	text	No	Alliance crystal production per hour (for example 15,000). Required if end_date is provided.

/flag cost crystal_amount: 2,000,000 current_flags: 50

With a future projection:

/flag cost crystal_amount: 2,000,000 current_flags: 50 end_date: 14:00 25/12/2025 hourly_production: 15,000

Tips

Tip

Crystal and production accept plain digits or digits with commas (for example 1234567 or 1,234,567), but no k/m/b suffixes here. Negative values are rejected.

The cost table covers flags up to 430. If your current_flags is already at or above that cap, the command tells you it cannot calculate further, since there is no published cost beyond that point.
