- Description: Rotate between characters on a timer, and put the account to sleep during set daily hours.
- Author: Kingshot Bot

The **Schedulers** tab has two unrelated features: **Character Rotation** (cycling between multiple characters on the same account) and the **Offline Schedule** (putting the account offline during set hours of the day, then bringing it back automatically). Character Rotation is a paid-plan feature — a lock banner appears above this tab if your plan doesn't include it.

## Character Rotation

| Option                                  | What it does                                                                                                                                                                | Default |
| --------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------- |
| **Enable automatic character rotation** | Master switch. While off, the bot stays on whichever character is currently active.                                                                                         | **Off** |
| **Timer interval (min)**                | How long the bot stays on one character before switching to the next one in the list below. Floored at 5 minutes regardless of what you type, as an anti-spam safety limit. | 60      |

## Characters in Rotation

![Explanation of the character checklist](https://help.kingshot-bot.com/content/images/2026/08/settings-schedulers--check-the-characters-to-include-the-bot-cycles-through-them-1.png)

Check the characters to include; the bot cycles through the checked ones in list order once the interval elapses. **Refresh List from Server** re-pulls your character list (useful after creating a new one elsewhere). **Create Character** opens a picker to create a new character on a chosen kingdom — the server assigns the name and the bot switches to it automatically once created. Each row also has a **Switch** button to jump to that character immediately, without waiting for the timer. How many characters you're allowed to check is capped by your plan; a message above the table tells you when you've hit that cap.

## Offline Schedule

| Option                                      | What it does                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  | Default |
| ------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------- |
| **Enable offline schedule**                 | Master switch for the whole feature. While off, none of the windows below are enforced and the account stays online (or offline) exactly as you'd expect from every other setting.                                                                                                                                            | **Off** |
| **Wake up on incoming-attack notification** | While the account is asleep inside a window, keeps listening for a push notification about an incoming attack. If one arrives, the bot reconnects to defend, then goes back to sleep once the threat clears (or after a safety time cap, in case the wake was a false alarm). Needs **Enable offline schedule** on to matter. | **Off** |

**The time basis is your computer's local clock, not the game server's clock.** Windows are compared against the local time of the machine running the bot — if you run several accounts across different server regions, they all sleep according to the same wall-clock time on your PC, not each account's in-game server time. Moving the bot to a different timezone (or a daylight- saving shift) changes when windows fire without you touching the settings.

**What happens at a window boundary:** when a window starts, the bot stops its automation loops and disconnects cleanly — it does not try to rush an in-progress action to completion first, it just stops and drops the connection. When a window ends, the bot reconnects and resumes automatically. If the connection attempt is rejected (for example a server-side device-slot limit), the bot logs it and quietly retries on the next check rather than getting stuck.

## Offline Windows

| Option                  | What it does                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               | Default |
| ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------- |
| **Target online h/day** | How many hours per day you want the account online, on average. Used only by **Generate windows** below — it doesn't do anything on its own.                                                                                                                                                               | 16      |
| **Generate windows**    | Replaces the current list of windows with a freshly randomized one: one long "sleep" block plus a few short daytime micro-pauses, sized around your target online hours (with a bit of random jitter so a whole fleet of accounts doesn't sleep in perfect sync). Each click re-rolls a new random layout. | —       |
| **\+ Add Window**       | Adds one manual window (default 22:00 to 08:00) that you can edit directly.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                | —       |

Each window has **From** / **To** fields in **HH:mm, 24-hour, local time** and a **Remove** button. Any time the current local clock falls inside a window, the account is offline; outside all windows, it's online. **Midnight-crossing windows are supported** — e.g. `From 22:00 To 06:00` means "offline from 10pm to 6am the next day," not an invalid range. You can mix manual windows with a generated set; **Generate windows** replaces the whole list, it doesn't merge with manual entries.
