Botany Machines

Botany Machines in City of Machines are specialized units designed to maintain ecological balance, cultivate plants, and preserve natural resources in the game’s interactive environment. Their role is essential not only for supporting sustainability but also for enhancing the game’s strategic depth, as teams can use these machines to regenerate resources, create protective zones, or develop eco-oriented strategies.

Key Features of Botany Machines:

Planting and Cultivation:


  • Equipped with automated planters that allow for fast and precise seed deployment in designated areas.


  • Built-in systems control humidity, temperature, and lighting to optimize plant growth.


Ecological Preservation:


  • Specialized units can detect polluted or depleted areas and automatically initiate soil and vegetation regeneration processes.


  • Equipped with tools for removing invasive species and restoring native ecosystems.


Resource Collection and Processing:


  • Machines collect fruits, plants, and other organic materials and convert them into useful in-game resources (e.g., biomaterials for construction or fuel for other machines).


  • Composters and processors produce organic fertilizer, boosting planting efficiency.


Automated Monitoring and Reporting:


  • Sensors track vegetation health, soil moisture levels, and air quality.


  • The data is used to optimize planting and maintenance strategies.


Role of Botany Machines in the Game:

  • Maintaining Ecological Balance:

  • Teams can use these machines to plant protective forests that reduce visibility to enemy drones.



  • Increased biomass can generate extra resources that teams can use in other sectors.

  • Challenge Support:


  • In competitive modes, missions may include planting a specific number of trees within a limited time frame.


  • Growing specific plant types can unlock bonuses or special resources.


  • Strategic Advantage:
  • Certain sectors may require a specific amount of vegetation to function, so teams controlling botany machines can slow down or speed up enemy progress.


Technological Features:


  • Modular Design:
  • Machine components can be swapped to adapt to different plant species and terrain conditions.


  • AI Integration:


  • AI can suggest optimal planting locations or signal when a specific area is ready for harvesting.


  • Intelligent resource management ensures maximum efficiency.
