My MPQ Roster (web based roster tracker)

Do you hate Excel? Wow, me too! I decided to get off my ass and do something about it by making a less painful, more attractive way of editing and sharing roster information.

Presenting… My MPQ Roster!

Ok, maybe it’s not very attractive right now, but that’s easy to fix. I’ve been focusing primarily on getting it working and preventing it from doing evil things like deleting all of your data. The data is stored using your browser’s localStorage, so there’s nothing to sign up for. When you’re ready to share it with someone, copy the URL in the permalink box (just note that the URL will be quite long if you have a lot of characters in your roster).

This is what my roster currently looks like (waiting for that lowered ISO cost for leveling to kick in on a few of my characters icon_razz.gif
).

Updates

  • 50% shorter URL for sharing roster information
  • Improved appearance (looks similar to in game roster)
  • Save button instead of autosaving
  • Improved permalink for better sharing (no longer requires refreshing the page multiple times)
  • Added Scarlet Witch (temporary cover for now)

Upcoming features

  • Multiple rosters
  • Better UI/design

thank! excellent!

Thanks great tool. Only thing I’ve noticed to fix is Doctor Doom.
You have him going blueflag.png

Thanks a bunch though!

Also, OP, you are missing LazyCap

Fixed.

And fixed.

You are a God.

Good idea,

I have my roster on an Excel Spreadsheet just now also but this looks promising.

Thanks

Just noticed your roster spreadsheet. The extra information is a good idea. I like having access to the other resources like the iso calculator too.
I wanted to set it up to auto-fill the iso amount to level up a character but never got around to it. Manually entering that info eventually just became easier for me.
Only question is why you differentiate between rarity and star-level if you don’t indicate which are gold versions?

Nice work, linking to this from my stickied thread so more people see it

Excellent work, Cymmina! I’m tempted to use this over the template I use.

FYI Ragnarok’s third color is incorrectly listed as yellowflag.png
when it should be blueflag.png
.

Post deleted. Sorry!

I do not appreciate this thread being derailed, this thread should only be for discussing the tool listed in the OP (bug reports, feature requests, or a show of appreciation if you feel inclined). If you would like to discuss someone else’s tools, use the appropriate thread or private messages.

Apologies, that wasn’t the intent, more to give some extra tools out there that might be useful in your tool too, but I’ll delete my posts to keep your thread on track.

Sorry. Didn’t mean to offend you. I just go by what the tone of a thread seems to be, and whether or not people mind OT discussion in it.

I do have some feedback. I looked at your roster site and think it’s a great start. If you could add a list view option, that would be pretty cool.

Keep up the good work, and sorry for invading your thread!

Having some pretty major issues here with this for me. Max levels refuses to go up when covers are increased, total number of covers permanently stuck at zero, every refresh leads to the prompt to create a new roster, and save button is not working.. This is occurring for all characters BTW. Was already having other problems before this, had a Bullseye and XF cover that refused to go away after every refresh no matter how many times I cleared their cover, so I cleared my cookies and all that, and the aforementioned problems are the new ones appearing.

Promising, but unusable for me, I’ll be sticking to my old Excel sheet for now icon_e_sad.gif

PS: would be good if you could update the cover arts. I’m sure I’m not the only one who can’t stand seeing that old Squirrel Girl art.

Which browser + version? Internet Explorer? I’ve tested in Chrome, Firefox, and Opera (Presto). I see there are some issues in IE related to localStorage, and I will try to get those resolved some time tomorrow.

I’ve resolved the issue regarding max level/cover total not increasing up as you add covers.

Updating cover art is a bit of a pain in the ass since all I have access to right now is Paint. I’ve updated Squirrel Girl’s cover.

Awesome tool Cymmina! icon_mrgreen.gif

I do like getting a visual representation of my roster…it makes it very easy to see where I am at.

If I had one suggestion to make…

The other thing that I do with my personal MPQ spread sheet is keeping track of my objective build for each character. So I put in my file the actual 13 covers that I want to get to see at a glance how I am doing for each colour.

As an example, right now my star.png
star.png
star.png
icon_thor.png
is 5 redflag.png
4 yellowflag.png
4 greenflag.png
which makes up the max 13 covers but compared to my objective for that character, I am actually at 5 redflag.png
out of 3, 4 yellowflag.png
out of 5 & 4 greenflag.png
out of 5.

If this goal was displayed in your roster tool then I could actually ditch my spread sheet all together…icon_e_wink.gif

Thank you very much for the time & effort to put a tool like this together mate…very useful addition to the community! icon_cool.gif

EDIT: Just for the fun of it… My current MPQ Roster

Everything’s working great now. Looks like the save problem was an effect of the cover problem, the link auto-generated the moment I added my first cover.

Just a few more things that needs to be fixed

  1. Both Captain Americas should be yellowflag.png
    redflag.png
    blueflag.png
    instead of redflag.png
    blueflag.png
    yellowflag.png

  2. Character orders during character addition are all over the place, which probably makes it troublesome for people transferring because they probably have their characters in alphabetical order on the spreadsheets. I’m seeing HT before DP, and Cyclops somewhere after Loki IIRC, just to name a few out-of-place guys. There are definitely plenty more

  3. DP, IW and Star Lord’s cover are still not changed, but that’s not important, Squirrel Girl’s was the important one lol (oh gawd that old cover was horrendous). You could also start preparing to change Daken’s covers for both 2 star.png
    and 3 star.png

Would also be good if you can have an option to sort finished roster by rarity instead of level. I personally like to see my spreadsheet sorted by rarity, so that it’s easier to find my 3* characters
