Stop conditions

Last updated: October 23, 2026

A run does not have to be watched. Tell it when to end, in the General tab.

The Stop conditions panel of Anbots NG: stop after so many minutes, stop once every ship finished, and what the PC does then
Stop conditions, in the General tab. The Then list decides what the PC does once the run is over.

Stop after a time

Tick Stop after and give it minutes. The run ends when the time is up.

Or stop when the work is done

Stop once every ship finished their tasks ends the run when each ship has spent its budget. A ship with no work does not keep the run alive.

Then the PC

The Then list can leave the PC alone, put it to sleep, or shut it down. With shutdown chosen, the machine only switches off once the last ship is on its way home.

Keep the PC awake

Prevent sleep, on the same line, is ticked by default: Windows does not put the PC to sleep while the bot runs. If the PC goes to sleep anyway, the bot picks up again when it wakes. This only covers the run itself: what happens once it is over is still up to Then.

Per ship, not only per run

Each ship can also have its own budget in kills, minutes or trips home — see per-ship budgets. Whichever comes first ends the work.

Quick answers

Can the bot shut my PC down when it is done?

Yes. Choose shutdown or hibernate in Then, and the PC only switches off once the last ship is on its way home.

What does stopping once every ship finished mean?

The run ends when each ship has done its work. A ship with nothing to do no longer holds the run open.

Will my PC go to sleep during a run?

Not with Prevent sleep ticked, which is the default: the PC stays awake while the bot runs. If it sleeps anyway, the bot picks up again when it wakes.

Where are the stop conditions?

In the General tab, on the right. The budget of each ship is set separately, per ship.
