Keeps every march slot out on the resource, level and biomes you choose. A level comes up empty? It drops a level, then follows your pivot order — or stays on target if you set it to Off. |
When the in-game search finds nothing nearby, Watcher finds a full Food or Gold node further out on supported realms and travels there by coordinates — never to a node one of your own marches is already on. |
Finds a mob at your level, checks its name and level before committing troops, and sends your marches as fast as the game allows. Set a brew limit and it stops before going over. |
Clears mob chests and helps the clan in any mode — or run Clan Chores Only, which closes the game between visits and times the next one by how fast your tavern fills. |
BlueStacks, MEmu, Nox and LDPlayer, side by side. Each gets its own mode, settings and live card. Settings are remembered per emulator; Copy to all sets up the rest. |
No two taps land in the same spot. Timing varies, swipes curve, typing has a rhythm, and it slows with fatigue over a long session — then takes real breaks with the game closed. |
Looks at the screen after every tap, reads the node before sending, and recovers from popups, the city view and disconnects. Auto Shield keeps you covered — and never buys one. |
A live card per instance in your own server, with buttons. Start, stop, edit settings, pop a shield, grab a screenshot — all from your phone. Alerts arrive with a picture. |
Start instances at set times — opening the emulator first if it's closed — and stop and close them at another. Every day, or only the days you pick. |
Move food, gold or ore from an idle account to any castle. It goes to the coordinates and reads the castle's name first — no match, nothing is sent. |
Every march is counted as it comes home — nodes and the resources they brought back — by day, by week and by instance. |
New versions install in one click and keep your settings. Every release is signed, so it only ever installs one that really came from here. |
NodeWatch drives each emulator over ADB and reads the game's own screen — matching what it sees and reading the numbers the game displays. There's no memory reading and no network tampering; it only ever taps and swipes, like you would. Your mouse stays yours, so you can keep using your PC while it runs.
The dashboard — one card per instance: what it's doing, its rate, every march counting down, and what it's brought home.
 Launch — tick your emulators, pick a mode, go. |
 A gathering card — rate, uptime, resources and every march. |
 Graphs — what came home, by day and by instance. |
 Send Resources — checked against the castle's name first. |
 Discord — your own bot, your own server, set up in a few clicks. |
 Schedule — start and stop on your timetable. |
 Help — every setting explained, searchable, right in the app. |
 Settings — tray, clock, updates, licence and support. |

2 Install Run it. It installs just for your Windows account — no admin rights needed. |
3 Activate Open NodeWatch and paste your licence key. Each key works on one PC. |
Important
Set every emulator instance to 1080 × 1920 portrait in its display settings. NodeWatch won't launch an instance at any other resolution — it wouldn't be able to recognise anything on screen.
| Requirement | |
|---|---|
| Windows | 10 or 11, 64-bit |
| Emulator | BlueStacks 5, MEmu, Nox or LDPlayer, with ADB enabled |
| Resolution | 1080 × 1920 portrait, on each instance |
| Discord (optional) | A free bot you create yourself — NodeWatch walks you through it |
Then: tick your emulators on Launch, choose a mode for each, and press Launch. Hover any setting for a tip, or open Help for the full guide.
Gathering
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Target resource | Food, Gold, Ore — or Alternate between food and gold |
| Max node level | The highest level it searches; drops up to two levels when nothing's there |
| Pivot order | What to gather when the target isn't there. Off never pivots |
| Return delay | A few extra seconds before a march is expected home |
| Biome preset | Spread across every biome, stick to one, or choose per march |
| March slots | How many marches your account can have out (3 to 6) |
| Dispatch mode | Continuous refills a slot the moment its march is home. Batch sends them all, waits for all of them, then repeats |
| While waiting | In Batch, close the game while marches are out — or stay on the map |
| Dynamic reassignment | Moves a march to another biome when its own runs dry |
| Watcher | When the search finds nothing, sends the march to a full Food or Gold node further out. Needs your realm and your castle's X and Y |
Mob slaying
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Max mob level | The highest level it looks for (1 to 21); drops up to two levels when nothing's there |
| Hunt biome | Grasslands, Badlands or Swamp — each has its own mob |
| Marches per kill | How many marches a kill takes you. Three suits most accounts |
| Brew limit | Stops before spending more than this. 0 means no limit |
Every mode
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Clear Mob Chests | Clears the clan's mob chests at the start, then about once an hour |
| Help Clan | Presses Help All every couple of hours |
| Auto Shield | Puts up a shield of your chosen length when yours is nearly out, or before a break. Never buys one |
| Stop after | Stops after the hours you set |
| Break every | Closes the game for an hour or two every few hours |
| Fatigue | Slows down gradually over a long session |
Discord is optional — NodeWatch works exactly the same without it. Open the Discord page and it walks you through creating your own bot, and can even make its own private channels. Then, from your phone:
/status · /panel |
What's running and how it's doing — or a control panel with buttons |
/start · /restart · /stop |
Start with saved settings (opening the emulator if needed), restart, or stop — now, or later with after:2h or at:7am |
/pause · /resume |
Pause or resume |
/settings · /edit |
See the settings /start will use, or change them with dropdowns |
/schedules · /schedule-edit |
Your scheduled starts and stops, and changes to them |
/log · /screenshot · /clear |
Recent activity, the screen right now, or clear a popup and see it |
/diagnostic |
The last problem it hit, with a picture |
/chests · /help-clan · /shield |
Do a chore now, or check your shield and use a new one |
/emulators · /open · /close |
See your emulators, open one, or stop and close one |
/mute · /link · /help |
Quiet alerts for a while, link another account, or see everything it can do |
Every running instance also keeps a live card in your channel — status, each march with its countdown, what it's brought home and the latest activity — with Log, Screenshot, Settings, Pause, Stop and Quit buttons. Anything that would stop an instance asks first. Only accounts you link can use it, and your bot token is stored encrypted.
- Nothing leaves your PC on its own. Reports go only when you press Send in Report a problem — and you see exactly what's in them first. Nothing in them identifies you.
- Debug captures are off by default. Turn them on in Settings only if you're troubleshooting. Screenshots for problems that alert you are kept either way.
- Updates are signed. NodeWatch checks once a day, tells you when nothing's running, and refuses anything not signed for it. Your settings, saved instances and licence carry over.
- Your licence is tied to your PC, not an account. Moving PCs? Copy your machine ID from Settings and ask in the Discord.
It says my emulator is the wrong resolution.
Open that emulator's display settings, set 1080 × 1920 portrait, restart it, then press Rescan in NodeWatch.
Which emulators does it work with?
BlueStacks 5, MEmu, Nox and LDPlayer — NodeWatch finds them by the names you gave them, and can open, close and restart them (from Discord too). BlueStacks has had the most testing.
On MEmu, set Settings → Engine → Render mode to DirectX. In OpenGL mode MEmu returns blank screenshots and NodeWatch can't see the game (it tells you if that's happening).
What does Watcher need?
Turn it on in the instance's Chores & safety panel and enter your realm and your castle's X and Y — it tries the nearest full nodes first. It works on supported realms, says so if yours isn't one, and only steps in when the in-game search comes up empty.
Can I use my PC while it runs?
Yes. It talks to the emulator directly instead of moving your mouse, so minimise everything — or turn on Hide emulator windows in Settings.
I got a new PC and my key stopped working.
Keys are tied to one PC. Copy your machine ID from Settings and ask in the Discord for a new key.
Something's not working. How do I report it?
Press Report on that instance's card, or Settings → Report a problem. You'll see exactly what gets sent before it goes. Or just ask in the Discord.
