 There are 2 new columns and a new button that are added with the Building Tool:
-* To Build - This column reflects the number of buildings required to reach the amount set under Building Settings.  ** If the number is negative this means that the building of this type is greater that what you have defined (example: in Building Settings barracks are set to 0 but there is 1 barrack in the kingdom, thus -1 is displayed).

 ** If Farms/Towns are disabled in Building Settings, then whatever land is left will be allocated to them in order to maximize population.  In the above example there is only 1 wilderness left, but the kingdom has more farms than necessary to maximize population, so the Building Tool suggests to destroy some farms in order to maximize population as well as to build the buildings at their appropriate settings.
