Hey everyone. I made a spreadsheet for calculating credits in Hawken. It lets you specify how many of each kind of part/rank/upgrade you want for each type of mech and compare to how many Hawken Credits and Meteor Credits you already have. It also calculates totals for how much it would cost to get everything for each mech in HC and MC (totals do not include cosmetics aside from emotes).

I hope others find this as useful as I do. Please let me know if I have missed anything or if any of my values are inaccurate. I made this using Google Docs, so if there is another format which can be made available automatically that you need, just ask and I will add a link.

Calculator links:
HTML (non-interactive, use File -> Download as)
Note: Google Docs has a conversion error which prevents the Open Office version from working properly. You can open the Excel version in Open Office and it will work and let you save it in that format.

Simplified Instructions:
It's a spreadsheet. The layout should be intuitive enough for most to understand right away.

Instructions:
1. Download the calculator spreadsheet using the link above.
2. In the "Current" worksheet, enter your current HC and MC in the "Current HC" and "Current MC" boxes, respectively.
3. There are individual sheets for each type of mech. Enter the desired quantity of each type of unlockable in the blank boxes.
4. The "Misc" sheet is for consumables, boosters, and XP Transfer. Enter the desired quantity for each in the blank boxes.
5. Total credits required and the deficit between credits owned and needed will be calculated automatically for each category and totaled for each mech and shown on the respective sheet.
6. Total credits required for all desired items will be calculated automatically and shown on the "Current" sheet.
7. Some cosmetic boxes require MC values instead of quantity; these are labeled as such.

Etc.
The first 4 sheets are primarily there for calculation purposes, but they also calculate and display total HC and MC requirements for unlocking everything (functional) per mech and the total for unlocking everything on every type of mech. These values assume only the CR-T has been unlocked through progression and that each mech starts with a single 2-slot item.

Ooh very nice. But maybe you should specify that those other two links are download links. This is very useful, thanks.

(Thanks for making this awesome tool, I'm too lazy to do my own math.)

Done. I also updated my post and the calc with instructions and improved labeling to better explain how it works.

I added a bunch of features to the calculator and as of now it has everything I planned to implement. Please let me know if you find any bugs or if you have any suggestions for improvement. I hope my fellow Hawken players find this useful.

Thanks everyone!
