Introduction
OGame Nexus is a next-generation analytics suite designed for players who want a tactical edge. It ditches basic old-school tools by providing a high-performance, sleek dashboard that provides a 360° view of your empire's standing. Whether you are a min-maxer or a casual fleeter, OGame Nexus turns your raw data into a tracking edge.
Detailed Features
- Empire 360° Hub: A modern, Bento-grid dashboard that aggregates production from mines, expeditions, combat loot, and debris harvesting into a single "Daily Yield" metric (MSU).
- Expedition Command: Deep analytics for Expeditions. Track success rates, rarity distributions (Epic/Large/Common), and resource/ship yields with historical Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts.
- Data Import/Backups (Cloud backups to come)
- Lifeform Sandbox: This feature is what I initially wanted to implement for this Extension but decided to go even further. It basically allows the player to "play around" with Lifeform Technology setups and see all bonuses gained.
- Empire Amortization: Takes all the data gained from the OGame account to the next level by helping the player decide on how to progress with his Empire. (ROI calculation)
-
Lifeform Optimizers:
- T18 Kaelesh Tech Optimizer: Minimize the MSU cost of maximizing your Discoverer class bonuses.
- Plasma Tech Optimizer: Optimize "Improved Stellarator" levels across your entire empire to hit target research levels for the lowest investment.
-
Command Tools:
- Scrap Merchant Optimizer: Maximize returns when scrapping fleet components.
- Expedition Calculator: Calculate perfect fleet compositions for maximum potential yield.
- ACS Splitter: Quickly calculate loot distribution for alliance operations. (testing)
- More to come
- Combat & Activity Tracking: Detailed combat logs to monitor your profitability and mission history.
- Premium Design: Built like a space cockpit, glassmorphism UI, and fluid Framer Motion animations for improved QoL experience.
How to use
- Installation: Install the extension (by clicking "Load Unpacked" and pointing to the .zip in the download).
- Initialization: Simply browse through your OGame account (Planets, Messages, Empire view) to allow the extension to securely sync your data locally. (uses a Dexie DB in-browser plugin to store the data).
- Command Center: Click the sidebar icon in-game or the extension popup to open the full Nexus Dashboard.

Compliance & Philosophy: I have designed OGame Nexus to be strictly compliant with Gameforge’s rules regarding external tools:
- Read-Only Data Processing: The extension only reads data that is already visible to the user in their browser (Mesaages, Empire view, etc.).
- No Automation: The tool does not perform any actions on behalf of the player. It is purely an information and analytics dashboard.
- Local Storage: All data is stored locally within the user's browser (DexieDB) to ensure privacy and security.
- No Advantage Over Non-Users: All calculations (MSU conversion, amortization, and tech optimization) are based on public game formulas and are meant to replace manual spreadsheet calculations, not to provide an unfair mechanical advantage.
Submission Details: The full source code is available for review inside the .zip file provided. This is just the first release and testing has been done individually by myself - I am expecting bugs in the beginning but I am committed to keeping this tool updated and will provide a clear changelog for every version to ensure continued compliance as the game evolves. If this tool gets approved/tolerated, I will create a highly informational post and FAQ area for current and future to-be-implemented features.
I look forward to your feedback and am ready to make any necessary adjustments required to meet the toleration standards.
Thank you for your time and for the work you do in supporting the OGame developer community.
Best regards,
