Have a new Bunny Tool today:
This one wil be a bit late for many as they have already completed it. But as a subscriber of the old adage "give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for life" school of thought, this tool may be useful for those who wanna be fishermen / fisherwomen. If ya want the *.xls file so you can edit the spreadsheet, send me a PM and I will sent you the file voia Rocket Chat. You can see the jpg here by clicking the link below:

The tool is an original style Bunny Tool and is "ole spreadsheet format"; heading explanations are as follows:
1. Name - This is obviously the name of the material you are looking for
2. X-Cordinate - Every flag you plant is recorded by the game on a grid. This number indicates the horizontal cordinate from the "origin point" for the region. You can find these coordinates in your [toon name]landmarks.xml file. Good to have if you ever need to replace an accidentally deleted flag.
3. Y-Cordinate - This number indicates the vertical cordinate from the "origin point" for the region.
4. Weather - Again this should be obvious but your map header (Humidity) shows this:
Best = 0.00 - 16.66
Good = 16.67 - 49.99
Bad = 50.00 - 83.33
Worse = 83.34 - 100.00
5. Test Columns - The next 4 columns are there to record your progress as you test to find out which weather the desired material will pop in.
Method Used - Use what works best for you, but this was my approach with paper copy:
1. Started at the faction TP because it was most convenient. Starting with "Beng Amber", set up your tracking for 500m using the Region Spec and Material Spec as appropriate.
2. Note the weather and track for that Season (Region) on Beng Amber.
Possible Results:
a) Not Present in Area - Put an "x" next to the mat name ... no benefit in tetsting from this location in any other weathers.
b) Not Present ...in this weather - Put an "x" on the mat name row in the weather name column ... no benefit in retesting from this location in that weather. By process of elimination, you will soon know in which weather this material can be found and, more importantly I think,what weathers not to bother retesting in. If ya don't like x's and o's, pick something to your liking.
c) Detected at xyz m - You know the drill run in whatever direction making number get smaller. Put on "o" in the mat name row in the weather name column.
If intersted, when ya done for the day, or when ya paper copy just gets too "busy", you can open the landmarks.xml file and record the X and Y coordinates.
Why I kept the X and Y coordinates.
NOTE: **Messing with the game's files is not a suuported activity. So if you choose to do this, make copies of all files and don't ask for CSR support.**
NOTE: I back up my files once a week or so with Zyroom if I don't notice it doing it automatically, and say I have since added 50 new flags and then I accidentally delete a flag, and restoring from backup will lose my 50 new flags ..... I can:
a) keep my new file intact - While not ingame, I use Notepad++ (Windows) to open the backup landmarkls.xml and find the deleted flag. Then copy it, close the backup file, open the newer landmarks file, find and paste that flag into the new file. The Nexus section can be identified here and all flags below that are for Nexus (Until the next continent starts of course):
<landmarks continent="nexus" type="user">
b) I can just create a fake new flag wherever I am standing in the region with the proper name . Then I exit the game, open the file in Notepad++ and edit the fake numbers . For me, this feels safer.
