Settings

The oBot Settings menu: guided setup presets, language, research, Commander functions and configuration backup.

Last update: November 2, 2026

The Settings menu gathers the options that apply to the whole bot and the profiles that set up several menus in one go.

Guided setup (presets)

Guided setup with presets

The presets are tiles with a title, a description and, on one of them, the ★ recommended mark: tap the one that fits you. Each sets attacks, expeditions and activity together for a play style:

⚖️ Balanced: moderate automatic attacks, expeditions and activity. The recommended starting point.
🌾 Farmer: attacks inactive players automatically and sends expeditions, with careful thresholds.
🔭 Explorer: as many expeditions as possible, no attacks, activity based on expeditions.
🛡️ Defensive: anti-missiles, missions paused under attack, message reading for alarms. No automatic attacks.

The preset marked ★ recommended is chosen from your class and account age: Explorer for the Discoverer, Farmer for General and Collector, Balanced for a brand-new account.

Preset confirmation with adapted values

Before applying it the bot asks for confirmation and shows what it adapted to your account: the minimum loot threshold grows with the universe speed, expeditions never exceed your Astrophysics slots and on a new account the attack waves stay careful. With OK the bot saves the current configuration as a backup and applies the preset. Afterwards you can change every single option in the menus.

Backup and reset

Create backup configuration saves a copy of the current configuration on the server.
Restore backup, followed by the date, puts the saved configuration back. Applying a preset also creates a backup.
Reset configuration puts every option back to its initial value. Make a backup first if you may want to go back.

General settings

General settings and research

Select the language

Language of the panel and of the Telegram notifications. The menu shows the name of each language and marks the server language. On first start the bot uses the server language, but you can pick another, for example the bot in English on an Italian server: it always reads the game texts in the server language. After changing it, save and reload the page.

Update notice

With Telegram linked, tells you when the bot updates to a new version.

Research

Automatically save researches

On by default. Every time you open the OGame Research page the bot saves your Astrophysics, drive and Hyperspace Technology levels by itself. With this option on the manual fields stay hidden: just open the Research page after each completed research.

Hyper Technology, Astrophysics, drives

They appear only if you turn automatic saving off. They are used to work out cargo space, flight times and the maximum number of expeditions. Left at 0 the maths is wrong and the panel shows a red warning.

Commander functions

Commander functions

Conveniences inside the game pages. They do not launch missions.

Enable button [max]

On the shipyard and defence pages, adds a button that fills in the maximum amount you can build with the resources available.

Enable additional mine information

Shows the hourly production and the time to the next level on the mines.

Show when storages fill up

Tells you how long until your storages are full.

Show time left before you can start a building or research

Shows how long, at the current production, before you can start a building. It does not appear if you have the OGame Commander, which already does it.

Remember to save

Here too the options only apply after you press Change settings at the bottom of the menu. Presets, on the other hand, save straight away after the confirmation.
