Quickstart Guide

Get up and running with TPM quickly with this step-by-step guide.

Before You Begin

Make sure you have:

  • TPM installed and configured (see Installation)

  • A Coflnet account with Premium or Premium+

  • A config to use (free or paid)

  • At least 50M coins in your purse

Step 1: Load Your Config

After purchasing or obtaining a config, load it in-game:

/cofl loadconfig [config-name] [config-name]

For example, if your config is named "stellaconfig":

/cofl loadconfig stellaconfig stellaconfig

You should see a confirmation message that the config has been loaded.

Step 2: Configure Your Settings

Set your minimum profit and profit percentage thresholds using Cofl commands:

Set Minimum Profit

/cofl set minprofit 4.9m

This ensures TPM only buys items with at least 4.9 million coins profit. Adjust this based on your strategy.

Set Minimum Profit Percentage

/cofl set minprofitpercent 6

This ensures TPM only buys items with at least 6% profit margin. This is especially important if you have a low purse.

Other Useful Commands

/cofl set maxprice 100m        # Maximum price to pay for an item

For more commands, see the [Cofl Commands](../configuration/cofl-commands.md) documentation.

## Step 3: Start TPM

If TPM isn't already running, start it:

```bash
node index.js

You should see:

  1. Bot connecting to Minecraft

  2. Joining Hypixel

  3. Connecting to Coflnet WebSocket

  4. Ready to receive flips

Step 4: Monitor Your Bot

Discord Notifications

If you configured a webhook, you'll receive Discord notifications for:

  • Bot startup/shutdown

  • Purchases made

  • Items sold

  • Profits earned

  • Errors or issues

In-Game Monitoring

You can also monitor directly in Minecraft:

  • Watch chat for flip notifications

  • Check your purse balance

  • View your auction house listings

Console Output

The console will show:

  • Flip opportunities received

  • Actions taken (buy/skip)

  • Errors or warnings

  • Connection status

Step 5: Your First Flips

Once TPM is running:

  1. Wait for flips: Coflnet will send flip opportunities that match your config

  2. Automatic purchase: TPM will automatically buy items that meet your criteria

  3. Automatic listing: Items are automatically listed on the auction house

  4. Automatic relisting: If items don't sell, they're relisted with adjusted pricing

You don't need to do anything - TPM handles it all!

Understanding the Workflow

Here's what happens for each flip:

Coflnet sends flip → TPM evaluates → Meets criteria? → Buy item → List on AH → Monitor → Relist if needed → Item sells → Profit!

Tips for New Users

Start Conservative

  • Use higher minimum profit thresholds initially

  • Monitor closely for the first few hours

  • Adjust settings based on results

Watch for Bad Flips

If TPM buys an item that's hard to sell:

  1. Note the item name

  2. Check the price using /cofl lore (see Manual Pricing)

  3. Report to your config provider so they can fix it

Optimize Your Config

After running for a while:

  • Review your profit margins

  • Adjust min profit and percentage

  • Fine-tune item filters

  • Consider upgrading to a paid config

Common First-Time Issues

No Flips Coming In

Solutions:

  • Verify your Coflnet subscription is active

  • Check your config is loaded: /cofl status

  • Ensure your minprofit isn't too high

  • Verify bot is connected to Coflnet

Bot Keeps Disconnecting

Solutions:

  • Check your internet connection

  • Verify Minecraft account credentials

  • Ensure VPS has enough resources

  • Check Hypixel isn't experiencing issues

Items Not Selling

Solutions:

  • Your config might need adjustment

  • Market conditions may have changed

  • Use /cofl lore to check current prices

  • Contact your config provider

See the Troubleshooting Guide for more solutions.
