GJ Posting it..now the DEV's will nerf this workaround.
They removed the /pay command to stop non-owners paying maint on harvs. Now you told them a work around and they will nerf it in next publish.
Tell your friends, guildies..dont post it here...geez...

Do you honestly believe that?? Why would they nerf /pay and not /addpower? Why would they nerf it for havesters/factories and not houses?
They Nerf /pay so you cant pay on Condemnd Harvestors. They dont need to nerf /addpower. You nerf one or the other to acheive your goal. The Goal is to counter Swap lots by removing all ways for Non-Owners to pay on the Harvestors.
Why are you people so blind to what the DEV's do to this game...You will all see this work-around Nerfed next.
You can believe what you want, but I think its a bug. If they wanted to nerf /pay that bad, they would have removed the command from the game entirely and not just change the parameters.

No can do. You have to physically target the harvester. And even then, you have to be within 10m of it. Maybe closer. Now I just routinely drive into the thing and run the macro to service it.
As an alternative, you can invest in a maintenance bot. Have to be careful using that for harvs though. There is a rather nasty bug that occurs when you deed the harvester, but don't delete it from the bot's memory.

k thanks got it. I thought u guys were able to pay maintnance with out actually being near the harvestor. This would be a great thing to add to next patch 
like paying a bank tip but straight to harvestor

It's entirely possible they will nerf the workaround since they appear to have fixed the original bug for the next publish anyway.
Once pub 23 goes in, the proper usage of the command will be /tip elyssa 1000000
