* **Manual VID Range** — Set the VID range manually (uncheck the box to set it automatically; recommended for longer farming sessions).\ **Lower VID Range** (max 100) — Detects nearby entities faster.\ **Higher VID Range** (max 9999) — Detects all entities around you, but may take a few seconds to find them all. * **Classic start button** — Check this box if the green play button is not appearing. * **Priority** — Select which category of entities the bot should prioritize (Metins first / Bosses first). * **Wait x sec.** — How many seconds the bot should wait before moving to the next target. * **Route steps wait** — How many seconds the bot should wait before moving to the next step in a route. * **Go to next target immediately** — Enable this only if your server causes the bot to continue attacking an entity for a few seconds after it has already been killed. * **What to farm** — Select what you want the bot to farm:\ \ **Metins:** The bot will farm all Metins near you.\ **`-`** button — Clears the existing ignore Metin list.\ **`+`** button — Adds the selected Metin to the ignore list.\ \ **Bosses:** The bot will farm all Bosses near you.\ **`-`** button — Clears the existing custom Boss list.\ **`+`** button — Adds the selected target to the custom Boss list.\ \ **Monsters:** The bot will farm all Monsters near you.\ **Ore:** The bot will farm all Ores near you.

**`Mine nearest ore — The bot will focus on the closest ore to you first.`**
**`What to mine — The bot will mine every ore it finds near you.`**
**`Not auto pickaxe — Disable this if the bot should not automatically equip a pickaxe before mining.`**
**`Time mining ore — How many seconds the bot should mine each ore at a time (default: 30 seconds).`**

* **Metin / Boss detector:**

**`Detect metins — The bot will detect all Metins around you.`**
**`Detect bosses — The bot will detect the default bosses from the game.`**
**`Custom bosses — The bot will detect bosses you have flagged manually (to flag a custom boss, right-click it and select 'Add boss').`**
**`Rotate to target — The bot will rotate your character to face the detected entity (Metin/Boss).`**

* **How to move** — Select which movement method the bot will use:\ \ **Walking**\ **Hybrid** (recommended — your character will not get stuck, and other players will see you moving normally)\ **Teleporting** * **Attack on foot** — Forces the bot to stay on foot (dismounted) while attacking, even if **Use horse / use mount** is enabled for travel. * **Farm in range** — The bot will farm within the specified range. * **Farm by route** — The bot will follow the route you have created when no entities are found nearby. * **Fixed range** — The bot will stay within the specified range and will not exceed it.\ The checkbox next to it — If checked (only applies to "Farm in range"), the bot will return to the initial farming position when no entities are found. * **Unstuck character** — Recommended when using Walking as the movement method. When enabled, the bot monitors whether your character is stuck and automatically frees it if needed.\ \ **Use horse skill** — The bot will use this horse skill to help get unstuck:

* **Stop if player detected** — The bot will stop farming if any player is detected nearby (excluding players on the Anti-ban whitelist). * **Do not KS** — The bot will not attack entities that are already being attacked by another player. * **Relog / TP if HP lower than** — Choose whether the bot relogs or teleports your character away once your HP drops below the percentage you set.\ **TP hybrid if HP lower than** — A second, usually lower, HP percentage at which the bot teleports even if Relog is the selected action — a faster escape than a full relog. * **Wait for HP %** — After an HP-triggered escape, the bot waits until your HP recovers to at least this percentage before resuming attacks. * **Use horse / use mount** — When enabled, the bot will continuously check whether you are mounted. If not, it will summon and mount your horse automatically.\ **Pause attack** — Pauses attacking while the bot is busy mounting/dismounting, to avoid wasted hits. * **No distance check (WH)** — Skips the usual distance check against the Waithack range, for setups running [Waithack](/private-servers/waithack.md) alongside Farming. * **Skip metin if still attacking after x seconds** — The bot will move on to the next target if the current Metin has not been killed within the specified number of seconds. * **Farm settings → Options** — Opens an additional settings window with further tuning options for the farm routine. * **CH Changer:**

**`Change CH after route is finished — The bot will switch to the next channel after completing the route and finding nothing to attack.`**
**`Change CH if nothing to attack — The bot will switch to the next channel if there is nothing to attack.`**
**`Relog if nothing to attack — The bot will relog your character if there is nothing to attack.`**

* **One hit** — The bot will only hit each enemy once, preventing you from pushing nearby mobs away. * **Freeze location** — The bot will lock your current position; your character will not be able to move from that spot. * **Attack** — Choose an attack mode (default **Normal**) and click **Start** for the bot to continuously attack, as if holding the Space key.\ **Don't attack** — Detects and targets entities without ever attacking them (useful for testing detection/pathing).\ **Attack once** — Attacks a target a single time instead of continuously. * **Item user:**

* **Map teleport:**

* **How to move** — Movement method used for the teleport (Walking / Hybrid / Teleporting). * **Auto refresh map** — Keeps redrawing detected Metins/bosses on the map as they update. * **Radar** — Shows a compact radar-style view instead of the full map. * **Record route** — Records your movement as a route STMod can replay with **Farm by route**. * **Use capes each x seconds** — The bot will use the Capes item to attract nearby monsters.\ **Capes ID** — The VNUM of the Capes item to use; click **Read ID** to detect it automatically from your inventory.

**`When this box is checked, the bot will teleport your character in a cross pattern to attract more monsters.`**

* **Hotkey teleport** — Allows you to teleport by pressing the arrow keys.

**`This value sets the distance for each teleport step.`**

* **Moblock** — Pulls all nearby mobs to your position; the button shows **MobLock ON/OFF** to indicate its current state. Note: this effect is only visible to you. Depending on your server's settings, you may not be able to attack these mobs with regular hits, but skills may still work. **`Farming tab -> Pickup`**

* **Items to pick (VIDs)** — Add ground items to this list by clicking the **Add item** button. Use **Add item (search)** to find an item by name instead of by VID. * **Item filter: exact item match (new)** — When enabled, the list only matches items whose name/data matches exactly, avoiding false positives between similarly-named items. * **Global list (all servers)** — Use one shared pickup list across every server profile instead of a per-server list. * **Exclude items in list (pick rest)** — Inverts the list: STMod picks up everything *except* the items you've added. * **Filter pickup** — When enabled, the bot will only pick up items that are in the VIDs list. * **Enable pickup** — Starts the pickup bot.\ **Pickup only after breaking an entity** — Prevents the pickup bot from spamming; items will only be picked up after you kill an enemy. * **Pickup speed** — Set the desired pickup speed, in seconds between pickups.\ **Randomize pickup speed** — Adds small random variation to the pickup speed instead of a fixed interval. * **Pick all items at once** — The bot will attempt to pick up all nearby items at once. Note: this may not work on all servers. * **Pick-up items only when farmbot has target** — Only picks up items while the Farming bot is actively engaged with a target, instead of continuously. * **Pick-up yang only** — Only picks up yang, ignoring items (must be used together with **Filter pickup**). * **Pickup range** — Sets the radius around your character in which the bot will pick up items. * **Walk to item** — Lets the bot walk to items that are outside its normal pickup range instead of skipping them. * **Prioritize pickup (pause farm/waithack)** — Temporarily pauses Farming/Waithack while picking up items, so movement doesn't interrupt the pickup. **`Farming tab -> Levelbot`** The third sub-tab farms a list of saved map areas one after another, instead of a single spot or a route. See the dedicated [Levelbot](/private-servers/levelbot.md) page.
