Autopilot is a way of automatically opening and managing channels with peers.
Improvements
New heuristic added in 0.11 is much better, and for 0.12 Autopilot will be enhanved even further, to actually optimize your position in the network and not just connect out the the “best” node
Settings
Below settings seem to work. Update this page if you know more ;).
--autopilot.active \ --autopilot.allocation=0.9 \ --autopilot.minchansize=182817 \ --autopilot.maxchansize=682819 \ --autopilot.maxchannels=50000 \
