OGameX Defender Evacuation Plans
The Plans subtab records how Defender interprets incoming hostile movements. It shows detected impact windows, scheduled evacuation and recall timing, confirmation counts, destinations, movement details, and final results. Learn to read plans in observation mode before using live actions.
Overview
A plan belongs to a targeted planet or moon and can combine related threats arriving within the same period. It may include attack, ACS attack, or moon-destruction mission types. The first and last impact times describe the observed threat window.
Observation mode can create plans without sending fleets. This is valuable because it lets you verify target resolution, timing, and destination choices without moving ships or resources.
Plans are not permanent promises. Incoming movements can change, disappear, or become ambiguous. Defender updates a plan as it receives additional successful observations.
Plan Timing
First impact is the earliest currently associated hostile arrival. Evacuate at is calculated before that impact using the lead time from Defender Settings. When several related threats exist, the card may also account for the wider impact window.
If recall is enabled, a recall time can appear after impact. Recall should only proceed when the exact outgoing movement and timing are known and clean observations satisfy the safeguard. A displayed schedule does not mean the action has already happened.
Compare these values with the current clock, selected destination, and pause schedule. A plan due close to a pause requires extra attention because live observation does not continue through the fully paused period.
Confirmations and Threat Details
Confirmations counts successful observations that support the current plan. More than one confirmation helps distinguish an ongoing threat from a single incomplete reading.
The card shows target coordinates and mission information. Expanded details can include ships, resources sent during evacuation, the chosen destination, and the evacuation flight identity after a successful live action.
Review the attacker and mission type when available, but make decisions primarily from the target, impact timing, and current plan state. Missing attacker details do not make the target harmless.
Understanding Statuses
Common plan states include:
- Observed: a threat was detected, but observation mode prevents live action.
- Scheduled: live mode has a future evacuation time.
- Evacuating: Defender is preparing or submitting the action.
- Evacuated: the outgoing movement was confirmed.
- Recall pending: the plan is waiting for recall conditions.
- Recalled: the exact movement was recalled successfully.
- Resolved: the threat no longer needs action.
- Canceled: the plan was manually or automatically canceled.
- Ambiguous: the result cannot yet be confirmed safely.
- Failed: an error prevented the planned action.
Do not treat ambiguous as successful or failed without further observation. Stop other fleet automation on that celestial and verify the game state directly.
Canceling and Deleting Plans
Canceling an active plan tells Defender not to continue its scheduled response. Use it only after checking the live game state and understanding the consequence. Deleting a completed or failed record removes it from the visible history but does not undo a fleet movement.
Keep failed and ambiguous plans long enough to investigate their source, destination, timing, and error. Removing the card too soon makes comparison harder.
Reviewing Live Evacuation
After a live plan reports evacuated, verify:
- The correct source celestial lost the intended ships and resources.
- The movement goes to the configured destination.
- The flight identity and expected return are shown when available.
- Other fleet modules did not consume required slots.
- Recall remains disabled or pending according to your test plan.
After recall, confirm the exact movement returned. If any detail differs, switch Defender back to observation mode before the next threat.
Interaction with Other Features
Defender should act before ordinary fleet routines when a source is under threat. Pause Fleet Save has a separate protection plan and becomes important before scheduled downtime. Expeditions, Bank, and inactive farming can consume fleet slots, so reserve enough capacity for protection.
Use Defender Celestial Configurations to correct destinations and Defender Settings to adjust observation, lead time, and recall.
Recommended Setup
- Run Defender in observation mode.
- Use Run now and review clear diagnostic results.
- Inspect every new plan’s target and mission type.
- Compare first impact and evacuate-at timing.
- Verify preferred or fallback destination coordinates.
- Observe how a canceled or disappearing threat resolves.
- Enable live mode only after several accurate plans.
- Test recall separately with direct supervision.
Troubleshooting
- A plan remains observed: Defender is in observation mode, which intentionally prevents fleet movement.
- A plan stays scheduled past its time: stop live mode and inspect current game state, diagnostics, and any displayed error.
- Recall remains pending: clean-scan or exact-movement safeguards may not be satisfied.
- A plan becomes ambiguous: avoid forcing another fleet action until the source and movement are verified.
- The destination is wrong: return to Celestial Configs and correct preferred and fallback choices.
FAQ
Can one plan contain several attacks?
Yes. Related hostile movements against the same target can be represented within one impact window.
What does observed mean?
The threat was detected, but observation mode prevents Defender from sending or recalling a fleet.
Is ambiguous the same as failed?
No. Ambiguous means the outcome is not confirmed safely. Verify the live game state before proceeding.
Can deleting a plan recall or cancel a fleet?
No. Deleting a displayed record does not reverse a movement that already occurred.
Why should I reserve fleet slots?
Defender needs capacity to send an evacuation. Expeditions, Bank, and farming can otherwise occupy the slots it may need.
