Step-by-step Guide

1. Start Clicker Heroes in your browser and set the graphics quality to low. Click the wrench and make sure these three options are unchecked:

2. Download and install the latest version of AutoHotkey

3. Download the latest bot release from GitHub:

4. Extract the bot zip file:

5. Double-click the ch_sw1ft_bot.ahk file to start the bot:

Unless you run Clicker Heroes in the Opera browser, you will get the following error message:

This is expected.

In your taskbar you should see two green H icons. One for the bot, one for separate monster clicker:

Unless they already exist, three user settings files will be created:

6. Open the ch_bot_lib_settings.ahk file:

Important! Use a decent text editor, like Sublime Text or Notepad++ when you configure this bot.

• If needed, change the browser name.
• Make sure the Clicker Heroes window have focus, then click Ctrl+Middle Mouse Button dead center in the ancient tab eye like this:
  
• Update the browserTopMargin according to the pop-up window:
  
• Save and reload the script with Alt+F5.

Test hotkeys:

• Ctrl+Alt+F1 should scroll down to the bottom, then back up
• Ctrl+Alt+F2 should switch between all used tabs

If any of these two fail, check the Troubleshooting section and the FAQ for possible solutions.

7. Open the ch_bot_settings.ahk file:

• With e.g. a lvl 90,000 Siyalatas:
  
  Following the regilding chart, you should be gilded on Moloch:
  
  Then you would set gildedRanger to 11.

• Depending on your playstyle, you set endLvlIdle and endLvlActive differently:

• The settings for chronos, kumawakamaru and vaagur:
  Should match your in-game values:
  

Recommended optional settings:

• Set autoAscend to "true"
• Set saveBeforeAscending to "true"
• Set noSleep to "true"

8. Save and reload with Alt+F5, then start the Vision Run with Ctrl+F1.

In the logs folder:

Open today's log file. The most important bits here are:

DEBUG   browser = Opera
DEBUG   browserTopMargin = 216
DEBUG   gildedRanger = Moloch
DEBUG   endLvlIdle = 99999
DEBUG   endLvlActive = 100000
DEBUG   chronos = 11.36
DEBUG   kumawakamaru = -2.59
DEBUG   vaagur = -39.71
INFO    Recommended transitional hero(es): Banana > Alabaster

Make sure these match with your settings. Also put 1 gild on the recommended transitional hero(es).

Troubleshooting

• Keep your mouse pointer outside the Clicker Heroes window to avoid click speed throttling.
• Use a separate web browser for web surfing while running the script.
• Make sure your browser window is not zoomed in or out, and is at 100% viewing size.
• In Windows:
  • Set display scaling to 100% (96 DPI)
    
  • Use True Color (32 bit)
    
  • If your account don't have administrator rights, you might have to start the script by right-clicking it and select Run as Administrator.

Known issues

• Active power savings settings turning off your monitor(s), can cause issues with AHK's image recognition. To combat this, you can enable the noSleep bot setting.
• The script can't handle any extra stuff on the left side, e.g. a bookmark list.
