How to Play

Click the pie button to bake pies manually.
Use your pies to buy Buildings that produce pies per second (PpS).
Buy Upgrades to double the production of each building type.

Manual Clicking System

Clicking the pie isn't just for early game! With the right upgrades, manual clicks can yield massive amounts of pies.

Click Power Formula

Base: 1 pie per click
Auto Clicker Upgrades (Tier 1-3): Each doubles click power → up to ×8
Thousand Taps Chain (Tier 4+): Adds +0.1 per non-Auto Clicker building owned, scaled by: Million Taps (×5), Billion Taps (×10), later tiers (×20 each)
Pie Tap Upgrades: Each adds +1% of your total PpS per click (up to +15%)
Golden Pie Buffs: Frenzy (×7) and Click Frenzy (×777) multiply clicks

Click numbers appear above the pie when you click, shown in grey normally and gold during Frenzy.

Golden Pies

Golden Pies appear randomly on screen. Click them for powerful rewards!

Spawn Timing

Minimum cooldown: 5 minutes must pass between golden pie appearances (even across UI sessions)
First spawn: 20-60 seconds after opening the UI (if cooldown has passed)
Between spawns: 5-8 minutes
On screen for: ~15.6 seconds (fades in over 1 second)
Requirement: You must have baked at least 100 lifetime pies before golden pies begin appearing

Effects

When you click a Golden Pie, one of four effects is chosen:

Effect	Chance	What it Does
Lucky	40%	Grants flat pies: `min(PpS × 900, Pies × 0.15) + 13`
Frenzy	30%	Production ×7 for 77 seconds
Click Frenzy	20%	Click power ×777 for 13 seconds
Pie Shower	10%	Spawns 5 more Golden Pies over 55 seconds (min 5s gap)

Important: Only one production boost (Frenzy or Click Frenzy) can be active at a time. If a boost is already active, any new Golden Pie clicked will grant Lucky (flat pies) instead.

Tips & Strategies

Early Game

Click the pie actively to build up your first pies.
Buy Auto Clickers first - they're cheap and their first 3 upgrades double your click power.
Move to Kweebec Bakers and Pie Orchards as soon as you can afford them.

Mid Game

Focus on buying upgrades - each one doubles a building's output for a relatively low cost.
Keep an eye out for Golden Pies! A well-timed Frenzy can dramatically accelerate your progress.
Start investing in Pie Tap upgrades once they unlock to keep clicking relevant.

Late Game

The Thousand Taps upgrade chain scales with how many non-Auto Clicker buildings you own, making clicks extremely powerful.
Pie Showers spawn multiple Golden Pies in quick succession - great for racking up Lucky payouts during an active Frenzy.
Higher-tier buildings have exponentially higher PpS — unlock the next type by owning at least one of the previous building (no PpS gate).
Use the Pie Tracker HUD to monitor your pies while doing other things in Hytale.

/pieadmin	Open the admin control panel. All administration — player resets, HUD management, language settings, and auto-clicker protection — is managed through this panel.

Permission Nodes

Permission	Description
`pieclicker.admin`	Access to admin commands and admin UI panel
`pieclicker.reset`	Full reset of player progression (buildings, upgrades, stats)
`pieclicker.hud.manage`	Manage HUD default position and allowed positions

Language Administration

Admins can set the server-wide language through the admin panel (/pieadmin > Server tab). The language setting persists across server restarts. Admins can also lock the language to prevent players from changing it individually.

Player management

Force Close UI: In the admin panel (/pieadmin), open the Players tab, select a player, and use Force Close UI to remotely close that player's Pie Clicker interface.

Full reset: Admin reset wipes all player progression — buildings, building upgrades, pie tap upgrades, pies, clicks, and related stats — not only pies and manual clicks. Available from the player detail view (permission pieclicker.reset).

Anti-idle system: After 5 minutes of clicking the pie with no other UI interaction (buying buildings, switching tabs, opening upgrades, etc.), pie rewards from clicking are temporarily paused. Interacting with any non-click element resets this and restores normal click rewards.

Auto-Clicker Protection

Pie Clicker includes a built-in auto-clicker detection and protection system. When enabled, it limits pie-earning clicks to 16 CPS (clicks per second) — the upper limit of human jitter clicking. Clicks above this rate are still tracked for suspicion analysis but do not award pies.

The detection system combines analysis of recent clicking patterns with rhythm analysis:

Improved CPS sampling: The system uses a sliding window of recent clicks-per-second samples — not a single all-time peak. Suspicion requires sustained high-rate clicking before it is recorded, and suspicion scores decay over time when the player clicks at normal human rates.
Click Rhythm Analysis: Measures the consistency of intervals between clicks. Human clicks naturally vary in timing, while auto-clickers produce unnaturally uniform intervals. A high rhythm consistency score indicates automated clicking.

In the admin panel (/pieadmin), the Players tab shows each player's auto-clicker suspicion level (green/yellow/red). Selecting a player reveals a detailed breakdown including recent CPS metrics (sliding window), rhythm score, detection timestamps, and descriptive assessments. Admins can reset a player's suspicion data or filter the list to show only suspected auto-clickers.

Auto-clicker protection can be toggled on or off in the Server tab of the admin panel.

Cross-Server Sync (Database Storage)

Pie Clicker supports optional MySQL/MariaDB database storage for syncing player progression across multiple servers. By default, all data is stored in local files — no configuration is needed for single-server setups.

Setup: To enable database storage, add the following to your config.txt in the mods/pie-clicker-saves/ folder:

storage=mysql

db.host=localhost

db.port=3306

db.name=pieclicker

db.user=root

db.password=

The plugin uses HikariCP connection pooling and automatically creates the required database tables on first connection. All dependencies (HikariCP + MySQL Connector/J) are bundled inside the mod JAR — no extra files needed.

Migration: To migrate existing file-based saves to the database, open the admin panel (/pieadmin > Server tab) and click "Migrate Files to Database". This copies all player data into the database. The original files are not deleted and remain as a backup.

Safety: If the database connection fails on startup, the plugin automatically falls back to file storage and logs a warning. Server configuration (config.txt) is always stored locally per-server, not in the database.

Known Issues

Black Screen / UI Going Black (GPU Issue)

Some players — primarily those with AMD GPUs or integrated graphics — have reported the entire UI going black when opening Custom UI pages. This is a known Hytale engine bug, not specific to Pie Clicker. It affects all mods using Custom UI (including MultipleHUD, World Updater, etc.).

What we know:

The issue has been reported to Hytale developers via GitHub discussion #50
It occurs at the engine rendering level — no mod-level fix is possible
It has been observed on AMD, integrated Intel, and occasionally Nvidia GPUs

Workarounds:

Disable the Pie Tracker HUD (click "PIE TRACKER: OFF" in the bakery panel) to reduce UI rendering load
Server admins can globally disable the HUD tracker by setting globalPieTrackerEnabled=false in the config
Updating GPU drivers may help in some cases
If the issue persists, it may require a Hytale engine update to fully resolve
