First Bee Swarm Simulator gather session in Revolution Macro

You’ve got Revolution installed. Follow the steps below to set up gathering so you can start farming honey. During a normal gathering cycle, the macro goes to the field, gathers using a pattern, fills your backpack, and then goes back to your hive to convert it into honey.

Configuring a single field to gather in and your player’s walkspeed is enough to get started.

  1. Open Gather → Fields. With no fields configured, you see Press the + button to gather at a field.

  2. Click + Add Field and pick one field (for example Pine Tree). A field card appears in the list.

  3. Copy the recommended Kettle configuration for Pine Tree to your clipboard:

    {"position":"bottom-right","length":1,"width":1,"distance":5,"pitch":3,"backpackPercent":95,"seconds":600,"shiftLock":true,"walkReturn":true,"gatherPattern":"Kettle","field":"pinetree"}

    This starter configuration recommends 95% Max Backpack. Pine Tree’s built-in field default is 97%.

  4. On the Pine Tree field card, click the grip icon (six vertical dots).

Keep gathering in one field until you’re ready to start using more features in Revolution Macro. Then see Set up AI Gather. Change convert timers and other gather options on Gather settings. You can also set up Automate dispensers and wealth clock and Automate quests. If you’re an end-game player with tad alts, see Set up Tad Sync.

If you have not added a field yet, the macro idles and waits at the hive. It will not show an error message. If the macro sits at the hive and does nothing after you add a field, never leaves the field, or pathing fails, see Macro resets or gets stuck. For detection problems, see Detection problems.
