IN-GAME AI HERMES
CAPABILITIES
CONSULTATIONS
Hermes can provide reference information about the game and answer the questions you are interested in. You can find a list of basic questions in the chat with Hermes; the list opens by clicking on the question icon (bottom left corner). It is important to note that Hermes does not spend tokens on consultations or on providing reference information. In rare cases when the AI cannot provide an answer, you can always contact the support chat, where they will definitely help you.
ASK HERMES A QUESTION
ESPIONAGE AND SCOUTING
You can perform automated scanning of other players’ planets. You can specify either a single planet or multiple planets, as well as the number of scout probes that will be used for scanning. In addition, you can specify a system or a range of systems (no more than 50 systems) where you want to send scout probes. Examples:
- Send scout probes to planet [10:9:8], from planet (specify planet), use one scout probe.
- Send scout probes to planet [10:9:8], [9:8:7], from planet (specify planet), use one scout probe.
- Scan live players’ planets using scout probes in the system range from [10:9] to [10:20], from planet (specify planet), use one scout probe.
DEBRIS HARVESTING
You can automate debris collection by specifying a specific planet or choosing any system you are interested in. Example:
- Collect debris from planet [10:9:8].
- Collect all debris in system [10:9].
- Collect debris from planet [10:9:8], use collectors from planet (specify planet).
PvE ATTACKS (Pirates) AND FARMING
Attack commands allow you to send a selected fleet into battle against a player or pirates. You need to specify a specific target as well as your fleet composition. It is most effective to use Hermes to attack pirates, because he can determine the enemy fleet composition himself and select the optimal fleet for the attack automatically. Command examples:
- Attack planet [10:9:8], from planet (specify planet), use 10 colossus.
- Attack pirates in system [10:9], from planet (specify planet).
You also have the ability to combine attack and collection commands so that Hermes attacks pirates and then collects debris after it appears, for example:
- Upgrade the Neutrino Power Plant by 3 levels on planet (specify planet).
- Upgrade the Collider by 3 levels, the Silicon Warehouse by 4 levels, and increase Energy Technology by 2 levels on planet (specify planet).
Analytics and Planet Search
Hermes can help you find the optimal planet for colonization, which is best suited for a new base. The AI can independently determine the sectors and temperature of an uncolonized planet in a specific system or a range of systems (no more than 20). Knowing this data, you can choose the best planet. You can also tell Hermes which columns to display and how to sort them (descending or ascending by a parameter). Task examples:
- Scan uncolonized planets in system [10:9], sort by descending temperature.
- Scan uncolonized planets in the system range from [10:9] to [10:20] inclusive, sort by descending sectors, show top 10 planets, do not show debris.
Construction, Research, and Empire Management
Using these commands, you can build a construction queue by specifying the order and how many levels a building/technology should be upgraded. Hermes can perform tasks to upgrade a single building/technology or upgrade several at once. Example:
- Upgrade the Neutrino Power Plant by 3 levels on planet (specify planet).
- Upgrade the Collider by 3 levels, the Silicon Warehouse by 4 levels, and increase Energy Technology by 2 levels on planet (specify planet).
Logistics and Optimization
Hermes can execute logistics commands and also collect nanobots, for example:
- Collect all nanobots from my planets.
- Transport 1 million titanium from planet (specify planet) to planet (specify another one of your planets), use only transports.
TOKENS FOR HERMES
All users receive a weekly supply of free tokens. Tokens are spent on completing core in-game tasks:
- Attack pirates;
- Scan players’ planets;
- Collect valuable debris.
Important: Tokens are not spent on viewing reference information, reading guides, or navigating the game menu. Use them only for active actions in space! Manage your weekly supply wisely to maximize your progress.
