stepsComplete one stable collection loop
The first useful milestone is not a large army. It is one Worker repeatedly reaching food and returning without losing the route.
- 1
Read the Queen position
Treat the Queen as the colony control point and keep the first route easy to see.
- 2
Create a Worker Egg
The visible shortcut is E; use the current Food value shown in your server.
- 3
Send the Worker to food
Use the available order and watch where movement slows or turns around.
- 4
Confirm the return
Wait for the Worker to bring the resource back before making another change.
tableUse each visible order for one job
The August interface exposes three unit orders. Their names tell you the immediate command, while unit roles decide who should receive it.
| Order | Use it for | Stop and recheck when |
|---|
| Follow | Bring selected units with the Queen | Workers leave an established collection route |
| Scavenge | Send gathering units toward available resources | A Worker cannot complete the return path |
| Attack | Commit combat units to a target | Food production collapses while the army is away |
Choose the next egg by the missing job
Workers gather Food; Majors and Drones are combat units. Add the role your colony lacks instead of buying whichever egg is currently affordable.
Food is unstable
Add or redirect Workers and shorten their route before building a larger combat group.
Food keeps moving
Introduce Majors or Drones when nearby threats, bugs or colonies block progress.
