how to scout with power bot+
TRANSCRIPT
“How To Scout With PB+“
Scouting is needed to see who are in Mists, who
are hiding and who has moved where. Option to Detect New Mists
Option to Scout Old & New Mists
Option to divide provinces into Squares
Option to auto select closest city
Fetch March target Details ( QuickScout)
Option to Attack Scouted Cords
These are the Provinces in your Domain which you
can scout.
The hole (Missing Province) in the middle is there due to how the game calculates
marches. (Without that Province it’s easier for the game to calculate)
The Red Dots are the cities of for example a selected Alliance to be scouted.
PowerBot + has what seems a Split system that actually works together.
PowerBot+ SEARCH ( Search the province or Square)
PowerBot+ SCOUT LIST ( Scout the SEARCH results of Province or Square)
PowerBot+ SCOUT RPTS (Filter the Scout Reports on Criteria) ( Optional)
In PB+ SEARCH you will search a Province or a part of Province ( Square)
Those Search results based on your Parameters,
With Additional options, Might, Alliance Rank, Alliance Name, Player Name.
PLS NOTE: When your search has been done on a Province, The Search has pulled
& Collected ALL info of that Province. Meaning every Parameter possible has
collected. Every City, Every Wild, Every Dark Forest, Every Barb, Every Mist.
The Results are shown based on your filter Options, Switching Filters, shows
different results , but from the same initial search. Meaning you do not have to
search again on new parameters, just change the filters.
When Ready , EXPORT the results to SCOUTLIST.
Select All. Then Add To Scoutlist
From Scout List you will start Your search.
So you have to Follow a Logic Pattern.
1 (Search)-> 2(Scout)->3 (Filter)(Optional)
So let’s see it a bit more in detail.
PowerBot+ SEARCH
The Search is an extremely powerful tab giving you many options via the
Filters.
The new search differs almost entirely from the old bot search,
EVERYTHING in the area you ask for is stored, and then you just filter what
you want. So it basically searches everything there is in a province. If you
searched for Mists and then want to change filter to Dark Forests, they are
listed straight away.
New is the option to detect NEW Mists in a Province or Sector.
Here we just scouted the province on ONLY New Mists.
We can also combine OLD & NEW Mists.
You have the Options to Quick scout, Go to Cords, Or Pull March+ Attack
Panel up to attack by clicking the pic.
March+ Tab is discussed in full in PowerBot+ Guide.
You can Search on Misted ( specific old or new Mists or both) , Friendly,
Hostile, Neutral, Unallied.
1- When you have been searching a lot you may end up with Map
Captcha. ( Aka Green map). PowerBot+ detects this and displays
this and aborts the search.
2- The Overall progress of search is displayed as well, in percentages ( %)
it shows you how much of a province has been searched. If Its
completed it will show 100%
3- Auto-Quick Scout Mists, when ticked will send scouts out straight
away while still searching, or when the search is completed. If you want
to do 1 province like this, this is ok. When you start doing more
provinces you will encounter Game Captcha.
4- When Search is completed, select all, and click “add to scoutlist”
5- After clicking “add to scoutlist” all the cords get transported to
Scoutlist Tab.
PowerBot+ SCOUT LIST
The Scout List Tab is an extremely powerful tab that not only allows you to
Scout but Attack as well. From Search tab you have copied the to be
scouted cords to here. Select all the cords to be scouted by Ticking the top
box ( with red circle around it) We are scouting, so select the relevant
options. How many scouts to send, which city, skip targets when errors
occur & fetch march target details ( if you want). Or Closest City to targets.
Now put the Auto Scout button from Off to On. Scouting Commences..
The scouts are now scouting the cords loaded in the scout list tab.
Due to enabling fetch marching details, you can also see straight away who
or what they are marching on.
Scout Results will be in your Game Report Box.
If you tick the “ Send Attack” option, you can send for example your scouts
on attack.
AP cities are protected!
PowerBot+ SCOUT RPTS
Introduced already in the previous BOT, this tab filters the accumulated
scout reports from scouting based on criteria you set.
In above example,
Food has been set at 100 Billion
Ore has been set at 5 Billion
And Scout Reports on Friendly Alliances get auto deleted
This Leaves the reports with Food equal or greater then 100b and Reports
with Ore equal or greater than 5b. In addition Scout reports where your
scout was overwhelmed in battle are kept as well.
This leaves you with the filtered reports you wanted.
Change to suit your need(s)
(NB - Set amount to zero to disable the check for that particular resource. If all
amounts are zero nothing gets deleted)
If for example , you are not interested in resources but only reports where
your scouts are overwhelmed, then set Gold to 5B and all resources reports
get deleted and you are only left with reports where your scout lost…
Tips; When scouting , be sure to use a preset with at least 600 ( cap ) marching
speed, so your scouts move over the domain/ provinces as quickly as
possible.
You can also use the “ Viand Kraken” Guardian for extra speed.
Using Blue Eagle Wings when scouting provinces ( further away) reduces the
return march of scouts by 50%.
Configuring Presets to be used ,is done in March+ Tab.
Sharing is knowledge, and a lot of players are not sharing. Yes, it gives you and edge, or advantage, but
it leaves also many people clueless. The objective of these tutorials, is to teach, learn, educate players so ALL players have
a better under understanding of the game. The more players participate, the better the overall experience is for all players.
More attacking and defending means “lively” domains full of activity.
