Guide/The app
A tour of the window
Everything in LeanBot starts from the bar at the top of the window.
The tabs (1)
| Tab | What it's for |
|---|---|
| Dashboard | All your accounts on one screen. Start, pause and stop them. More |
| Map | The live map of the account you last looked at. More |
| Accounts | Add your DarkOrbit logins and fix sign-in problems. More |
| Proxies | Give each account its own internet address. More |
| Saved configs | Your configs: every setting, for every account using them. More |
| Schedules | Plan which config runs at which hour of the week. More |
| Global | Behaviours you set up once and use in every config. More |
| Access | Set a password so you can control LeanBot from your phone or anywhere else. More |
| Licence | Link LeanBot to your Discord account. Only shown when licences are switched on, which they aren't yet in the released app. More |
The buttons on the right
| Button | What it does | |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | Settings | Settings for the whole app: language, what the map shows, how many game messages to show. These are not your bot settings; those are in Configs. |
| 3 | Streamer | Hides account names, pilot names and addresses on screen. On (green, Streamer) by default, for every screen showing this LeanBot, your phone included. Click it to show them (Visible). Leave it on whenever you share a screenshot. Log files are not masked. |
| Guide | Opens this guide in your browser. (Newer versions.) | |
| 4 | Logs | Opens the folder with LeanBot's log files. We'll ask for the newest one when you report a problem. |
| 5 | Check for updates | Looks for a new version now instead of waiting. More |
| 6 | Open in browser | Opens LeanBot in your web browser, on the same page. Handy for a second screen. |
Logs and Open in browser are only in the LeanBot window, not when you use LeanBot from a browser. | 7 | Window buttons | Minimise to the tray (the little arrow), minimise, maximise and close. |
Minimise to tray hides the window but keeps LeanBot running. Click the LeanBot icon near the clock to bring it back.
The line under the tabs
The thin line under the top bar says what the bot is doing right now, the ping to the game server and how much memory LeanBot uses. On the right is the address to open LeanBot from another device (hidden while Streamer is on).
An account's own tabs
When you open one account (from its card on the Dashboard), a second bar appears with:
- ‹ Fleet: back to all accounts.
- Account: switch to another account.
- Map, Stats, Hangar, Config: that account's live map, its numbers, its ships, and its settings.
App settings
Settings (2) opens this window. It has the language of LeanBot's own screens (English, Spanish, German or Polish; the picker shows how complete each one is), the language of the game's texts, and what is drawn on the live map. To correct or add a translation, open Config → General → Languages → Open the language folder, edit your language's file and save: the screen changes straight away. Map layers switch individual things on the map on and off, like the grid, the boxes or the path the ship is flying.
