Antimatter Dimensions guide

This guide is taken directly from the Antimatter Dimensions Fandom. The premise is removed as that will be repeated through different pages in this wiki.

General Tips

 * 1) Set up a macro tool such as OP Auto Clicker, and you can use it to hold a key and make progress go faster. If you can't or don't want to use AutoHotkey, you can also use a simple autoclicker (you can setup a hotkey for example F11 to toggle the autoclicker) Link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/orphamielautoclicker/ (You don't need to do this if you can't)
 * 2) Use the M trick: Hold down M. After an initial delay, key repeat will start and you will spam the Buy max button faster than even an Autoclicker can! (The rate is controlled by Key repeat in Control panel.)
 * 3) Use the Enter trick: After clicking a button, you can hold down enter to click it as fast as your key repeat delay.
 * 4) Use the H trick: While holding one or more buttons, you can press H. You can hold down M, D and G and press H to automate most of pre-Infinity without needing any external tools! This effect will wear off if you press another key.
 * 5) Run Antimatter Dimensions in Google Chrome, no other browser. On Firefox the enter trick and autoclicker don't work as well. Leave it as the active tab in its own window, un-minimized (hidden is ok). If it is considered inactive it will not get as much CPU time and run inefficiently. Turning off the News in options will also help CPU usage. (Note that if your computer has very low specs, you will find it difficult to achieve challenge times and fastest infinity times reported in the guide.)
 * 6) Export your saves regularly and save them to a text file in some cloud storage (like Dropbox). This way if you need to change devices you can, you can't lose your progress by losing or overriding your save, and if you make a mistake and need to undo it, you can load an earlier save. You can also use Pastebin.
 * 7) Learn the keyboard shortcuts and automate them. Make sure to turn them on in Options. It is on by default.

10 - 1e130 AM: Introduction Era (5 hours to 2 days)
For most of the time in this segment, it's optimal to use the H trick: Hold down M, D and G and hit H to continually max all, buy dimboosts and buy galaxies as soon as they're affordable. You will have to use other Hotkeys or click buttons manually for the following reasons, in order of appearance:


 * 1) Buying exactly one of the highest dimension available to you (1-8 + shift key). (Otherwise, it is useless to buy any less than 10 dimensions at once, because they will be growing so fast from the dimensions above them that only the 2x multiplier for completing a set of 10 matters.)
 * 2) 'Max All' prioritizes the next Tickspeed Upgrade over an equally expensive 10 of a Dimension. If you'd rather greatly improve a singular Dimension instead of distribute a smaller boost to all of them, you can occasionally buy 10 by hand (1-8).
 * 3) Buying the next Dimensional Boost (D) or Antimatter Galaxy (G). Doing this resets all your previous progress, but these upgrades are powerful and currently mandatory for progression. Max All does not buy them, so buy them by hand ASAP. Ensure you are prioritising Galaxies over Boosts in the event that both require the same amount of Eighth Dimensions. (If you can buy a galaxy and dimension boost for the same price, buy the galaxy, as buying a dimension boost is a waste of time as galaxy will just reset it)
 * 4) Doing Dimensional Sacrifices (S). Dimensional Sacrifices are unlocked at 5 Dimensional Boosts, increasing the Eighth Dimension's multiplier while sacrificing all the others' generated amounts. Do the first one at 5x, and every subsequent one at about 2x as long as you are not approaching the next Boost or Galaxy. The fact that your Dimension multipliers are higher than they used to be means that you'll regain all of your previous Dimensions much quicker than you could before, so the time spent retaining production from well-timed Sacrifices is minimal.

The last 2 Boosts prior to a Galaxy are particularly slow-going. Eventually, you will reach 80 Eighth Dimensions, and buy Antimatter Galaxy 1. You must do this instead of Boosting as it is more important to get more Galaxies than to get more Boosts. You will lose all progress up to the point where you got a Galaxy, but it is more advantageous to have a Galaxy rather than continuing on forward with none.

During this section and early in the next section, you will be able to unlock Autobuyers that buy Dimensions and Tickspeed automatically without the player's input, but they cannot be upgraded until later in the game.

1e130 - 1e308 AM: Galaxy Era (3 hours to 2 days)
When you get your first Galaxy, at first, things will seem almost as slow as when you had none. However, check out your Tickspeed increase per upgrade - it's now jumped up to 1.145x up from 1.125x. What's the difference? With only a +0.02 increase to the multiplier it doesn't seem like much, but remember - each upgrade stacks multiplicatively, so with more upgrades the advantage becomes more apparent. Think about it this way - 58 Tickspeed Upgrades (costing ~1.111e60 Antimatter total) used to give you a 926x boost - now it gives a 2574x boost! By the time you're back to 80 Eighth Dimensions, you have a ~9.54x bigger multiplier to all dimensions from Tickspeed, which is an equivalent ~6.8e7x multiplier to Antimatter! Also, your Achievements are producing a boost to all Dimensions - at this point, it should be around 1.58x, as the first row of Achievements is already completed, in which each row completed is a 1.25x multiplicative multiplier, as well as a 1.03x multiplicative multiplier per achievement.

All of this combined is ~15x to all Dimensions and ~2.5e9x increase in Antimatter production!

When you are about to get close to reaching 100 Eighth Dimensions, don't buy until 10 - buy singles to exactly 99 Eighth Dimensions to earn the achievement 'The 9th dimension is a lie', which gives Eighth Dimensions 10% more production. This will help a bit in reaching 140 Eighth Dimensions. Once you do, you can immediately buy a 2nd Galaxy, or just wait it out offline until you reach Infinity.
