Auto Farm Scanner
Scans and farms targets from a chosen origin with configurable minimum resources, distance, probes, cargo type, and free slots.
Overview
Auto Farm Scanner is the OGame farming bot module for finding and farming profitable targets. It scans from a chosen planet or moon, checks resource thresholds, and launches cargo ships only when targets match your rules.
Use this guide when you want automated farming runs without manually scanning nearby systems every session.
How It Works
Pick an origin planet or moon, set minimum resources, and define scan distance. The bot sends probes to scan and launches cargo ships when targets meet your criteria.
Settings
- Enable Auto Farm: Turns farming automation on or off.
- Origin Celestial: Selects the planet or moon the bot launches from.
- Minimum Resources: Skips targets below this resource threshold.
- Max Scan Distance: Limits how many systems away the bot will scan.
- Number of Probes: Sets how many probes are used per spy scan.
- Cargo Type: Selects small or large cargo for farming runs.
- Slots to Leave Free: Reserves fleet slots so other tasks do not stall.
When To Use Auto Farm Scanner
- Use it when nearby inactive or weak targets produce consistent resources.
- Use conservative thresholds on active servers where poor targets waste fleet slots.
- Reserve fleet slots when expeditions, evacuations, or defensive actions need room.
- Reduce scan distance when your local area is enough to keep cargo ships busy.
Recommended Setup
- Start with a short max scan distance and expand only if targets are too sparse.
- Set Minimum Resources high enough to cover flight cost and time.
- Use the cargo type that matches your account stage and target size.
- Leave at least one fleet slot free if you also run expedition or evacuation modules.
- Review spy and attack results before increasing automation scope.
Common Mistakes
- Scanning too far and wasting time on low-value flights.
- Setting minimum resources too low.
- Using all fleet slots and blocking safety or expedition routines.
- Sending too many probes per scan when fewer would be enough.
Best Practices
- Use conservative minimum resource thresholds to avoid unprofitable flights.
- Keep one or two fleet slots free for defensive actions.
- Adjust scan distance based on your server activity level.

FAQ
Can the OGame bot farm from a specific planet or moon?
Yes. Set the Origin Celestial to control where scans and farming missions launch from.
How do I avoid unprofitable farm runs?
Set a realistic Minimum Resources threshold and keep scan distance within a range that makes sense for your server.
Can auto farm leave fleet slots free?
Yes. Use Slots to Leave Free so other modules and safety actions are not blocked.
