Gathering Settings

The Gathering settings send the account’s armies out to gather on resource tiles in the kingdom. You choose the resource types and tile levels, how many armies to use, how far they may travel and when to gather.

In the Account Window, open the Settings tab > Gathering. For gathering in the Mirage Realm, see Realm Settings. To recall gatherers when they are scouted or attacked, see Protection Settings.

Main options #

Option	What it does
Gather Resources	Turns gathering on. Default: off.
Max Amount of Armies to Gather:	The most armies that gather at the same time. (0 For All Armies) means use every free march slot. Range 0-8. Default: 2.
Leave Spare Army(s)?	Keeps some march slots free for other jobs, such as hunting or rallies. If too many armies are gathering, the bot recalls the closest gatherer to free a slot. Default: off.
Amount:	How many march slots to keep free. Range 1-5. Default: 1.

Gathering Options #

Option	What it does
Use Gathering Gear?	Switches to your Gathering gear set before sending gatherers. Set up the gear set on the Equipment settings page. Default: on.
Auto Recall Camps	Recalls armies that end up camping on the map. Default: on.
Target Higher Level over Closest	Picks gem tiles first, then the highest-level tiles, then the closest. Default: on.
Only Gather Clearable Tiles	Only sends an army that can carry everything left on the tile. Default: off.
Use High Tier Troops	Gathers with your highest-tier troops. When off, the bot uses the lowest-tier troops. Default: off.
Ignore Level Settings for Gems?	Gathers gem tiles of any level, even levels you haven’t ticked. Default: on.
Gather the Resource with the Lowest Amount? (Amongst Selected)	Picks tiles of the resource you have least of (among the ticked types), then the closest. Only used when Target Higher Level over Closest is off. Default: off.
Types:	The resources to gather: Food, Stone, Wood, Ore, Gold and Gems. Default: all except Gems.
Level:	The tile levels to gather: 1 to 6. Default: 1-5.

When neither Target Higher Level over Closest nor Gather the Resource with the Lowest Amount? is on, the bot picks gem tiles first and then the closest tiles.

Misc #

Option	What it does
Search Multiplier:	How large an area of the map the bot searches for tiles. Higher values search further out from your castle. Range 1-6. Default: 2.
Max Travel Time (Minutes):	Skips tiles that take longer than this to reach. Range 1-60. Default: 10.
Sending Delay (Seconds):	The wait between sending one army and the next. Range 1-10,000. Default: 2.
Minimum Tile Resource Count:	Skips tiles with less than this amount left. Gem tiles are never skipped for this. Range 0-4,000,000. Default: 10,000.
Gather Schedule	Only sends gatherers between the two times in Gather between [time] and [time]. The times use your PC’s clock and can cross midnight. Default: off, 12:00 to 20:00.

Things to know #

• The bot only sends gatherers when at least 500 troops are at home and an army slot is free. It doesn’t start gathering while it is hunting monsters.
• Tiles that someone is already on, or that someone is marching to, are skipped. Your accounts in the same guild don’t send armies to the same tile.
• If no good tile is found, the bot tries again 5 minutes later.
• Gathering boosts from the bag can be used automatically: see Turf Boosts in General Settings.
• When Gather Resources is on in Realm Settings and the account has a Mirage Realm subscription, the bot gathers in the Realm instead of the kingdom.
• If this account is a guild bank, R4+ members can also turn gathering on or off from guild chat with !setgather on / !setgather off.

Event missions take over for a while #

Some event missions need gathering. While one of them is active, the bot uses its own gathering choices for a while, then goes back to yours:

• Guild Fest (when Complete Missions? is on in Guild Fest Settings): gathers Food, Stone, Wood and Ore on level 2-5 tiles (level 3-5 for high-point missions). This works even when Gather Resources is off.
• Chaos Arena gathering missions (when Complete Missions and that mission are turned on in Chaos Arena Settings): gathers on tiles of the level the mission asks for.
• Solo Battlefield: gathers any tile, any level, with your Max Amount of Armies to Gather: setting. Only when Gather Resources is on.

During these missions the bot also uses a Gathering Boost if you have one.
