Automating alliance bank donations in Viking Rise
The weekly quota is the least interesting obligation in the game and the one most likely to get you a message from an officer. It's a good candidate for never thinking about again.
This guide assumes you've completed Viking Rise bot setup.
This one works the moment you turn it on. It starts on Required, which pays what the tribe still asks for. Only Custom mode needs amounts.
What it is, and what it is not
This is the alliance bank — the weekly resource quota your tribe leader sets, which you pay into from your warehouse.
It is not the tribe technology donation, which spends a pool of donation charges on the alliance research tree. That one lives inside Tribe technology and gifts. The two share a name in-game and nothing else.
The whole pass happens without opening a screen.
Setting it up
Amount picks between two modes.
Required — the default — donates what the tribe still asks for this week. The bot reads each resource row's own remaining figure and pays that. This is the setting most people want.
Custom reveals four number boxes, one per resource. Fill in what you're willing to give. Blank or 0 skips that resource, so the boxes double as the resource picker.
Three limits, and the smallest wins
Whatever you ask for, all three of these are applied before anything is sent:
- What the tribe still requires this week. You can't overpay a quota that's already met.
- What your account actually holds. You can't donate resources you don't have.
- Your own ask, in Custom mode.
Nothing is ever sent that the game would refuse, so a huge number in Custom mode is harmless — it just resolves to whichever of the other two limits binds first.
Why the debit is bigger than the donation
The game takes a cut: what leaves your warehouse is more than what lands in the bank. The rate is per account rather than per tribe — two members of the same tribe can pay different rates — so the bot reads yours rather than assuming one.
The amounts you type in Custom mode are what the tribe still needs, and the bot works out the gross to send from there. So the figure debited from your warehouse will be higher than the figure you entered. That's the tax, not a bug.
Troubleshooting
Nothing is donated. Either the weekly quota is already met, or your leader hasn't set any requirements, or you're in Custom mode with every box blank. All three are clean outcomes.
Less was donated than I asked for. Your balance or the tribe's remaining requirement was the binding limit. Both are checked before anything is sent.
I'm not in a tribe. There's no bank. Clean skip.
A tribemate donated at the same time. The bot confirms what you gave by checking your own balance rather than the bank's total, so somebody else's donation can't be counted as yours.
I changed from Required to Custom. It takes effect on the next pass, like any config change.
I want to spread donations across the day. Add copies of the action with schedules. The quota is tracked by the game, so a pass with nothing left to give is a clean no-op.
