Configuring auto trader

Hello all,

Now that ts1 has finally come to an end, we can now focus on creating tutorials and documentation for TRAZERBOT. Most of the time we get emails from user on how to configure Auto Trader Feature. They usually think that there is a bug because auto trader keeps on postponing etc..

So anyway, in TRAZERBOT there are two types of trading we call them "Push" and "Support" respectively. Although the end result is the same (they both send trades!) they behave quite differently :)

Push vs. Support


 Push - is usually used when pushing resource to villages that you do not have any visibility of ex, a friend, a WW village, an alliance member, etc
  • "Maintain Source%" -  is optional
  • "Maintain Destination%" - is ignored
  • "Send Amount" - is conditional (if you enabled "Auto calculate resources to send", send amount is ignored, otherwise you need to supply the send amount parameter)
  • "Max Merchants" - is conditional(it is usually used when "Auto calculate resources to send" is enabled)
  • "Destination Village" - is required, also you can send to villages that does not belong to you by pressing the "..." button
Support - is usually used when supporting your own villages to enable it to grow and maintain resources across your account.
  • "Maintain Source%" - is required
  • "Maintain Destination%" - is required
  • "Send Amount" - is conditional (if you enabled "Auto calculate resources to send", send amount is ignored, otherwise you need to supply the send amount parameter)
  • "Max Merchants" - is conditional(it is usually used when "Auto calculate resources to send" is enabled)
  • "Destination Village" - is required, also you can send to villages that does not belong to you
Time Table (hrs) - controls the trading frequency in hours, if the mode is Auto it retries the trade after the first trade reaches its destination(minimum is 10 minutes travel time)

Repeat Send - is used when you have enabled plus account, otherwise "1" is sufficient

Configuring the Auto trader options



Min Delay Sleep Interval (milliseconds) - controls the minimum delay sleep interval when sending the trade request, this is used to avoid multihunter suspicion

Max Delay Sleep Interval (milliseconds) - controls the maximum delay sleep interval, together with the min and max it creates a random sleep interval based on the range

Min Calculated Send Resource - is the minimum total resources when sending trades

Minimum Duration (mins) - when "Auto calculate resource to send" is enabled this controls the minimum minutes until the trade retries

btw, we won ts1.com server :p

Playing Schedule

Playing Schedule's purpose is to toggle TRAZERBOT On and OFF depending on your setting... by default it is not enabled unless you press the Clock like icon when enabled it it checks every 30 seconds against the schedule/settings. when the schedule is set to "Auto" the bot will play 20-40mins at a time and rest for another 20-40mins, this is useful to avoid being "suspicious". If you are an aggressive player we suggest that you do not enable this feature, or you can have a playing schedule define which is on an hourly basis.

Prevent getting Auto Ban while using TRAZERBOT

This is a very simple tutorial on how to prevent automated ban while using TRAZERBOT
All you need to do is configure TRAZERBOT properly.. TRAZERBOT's default settings are guaranteed safe.. but it might be too "slow" for your needs.. so we will try to set it up to the most optimum potentials without getting caught ;)

First is to set the delay send for Troop send to levels where travian servers do not detect automated tools TRAZERBOT.. so far the optimum option for us is 950ms (minimum delay) 1950ms (maximum delay) you can adjust this based on your need but we would suggest to adjust it gradually.


The only reason why you want to put this option on a much lower setting is for TRAZERBOT to execute faster. This is compensated by the simultaneous execution count, which you can set to higher levels... that would "divide" the total execution time TRAZERBOT needs to execute request, to the number of simultaneous executing processes.

Translating TRAZERBOT to your local language

The translation process of TRAZERBOT is very easy, all you need to do is to edit an .xml file, and send to trazerbot@gmail.com for integration.

You can use any text editors, but we would recommend using Notepad++ for its highlighting features. Don't worry its free :)

Here are the steps when translating TRAZERBOT:

Locate the "Languages" folder under your TRAZERBOT base directory


Locate the base xml file "en-US.xml" and open with your favorite text editor


Start Translating! :)


Just translate all elements except the "Id" element, and the header elements that is used to defined flow direction. There are cases of formatted text, these are entries with "{0}".."{1}".."{2}"..etc inside there translatable elements. These are content place holders of the actual value, you can re-arrange it but you need to preserve it in order for your translation to work properly.

After Translation you can send the translated file to trazerbot@gmail.com so we can integrate it in our future release. We would also be giving you a new unlimited license for TRAZERBOT :)

Applying TRAZERBOT License key

We have been receiving lots of emails recently on how to apply the license key for TRAZERBOT although it is a very simple process it seems it is difficult for others who does not have any technical capabilities.

Here are the steps on how to apply the TRAZERBOT license KEY:
  • Extract the Zip file you downloaded to some directory
  • Go to the TRAZERBOT base directory and locate the folder "licenses"
  • Enter the "licenses" folder and copy&paste your license file inside "/licenses" folder
  • Double Click on the TRAZERBOT.exe Application to start the bot
  • Supply the Necessary User information on the main User Interface and press the snail button
  • A Message Window will appear saying it was not able to detect a valid license key, this is because you did not supply your email first by default press Ok to continue.
  • A License Window will appear asking for your account details where the email field is blank. supply the correct email associated with the license key and press "Save"
  • After that TRAZERBOT will resume it's task and you should be able to bot already :)
