Thanks Daric!!

I thought you could only drag and drop abilities from the abilities window (ctrl+a). I never thought oftrying to drag and drop the weapon from the inventory window (ctrl+i). I will give it a try. Thanks again.

Ok I got two questions. First off how do you copy and paste into the macro tool anywhere else for that matter. None of the standard copy/paste commands in the game or from an outside source into the game. I notice people mention doingthings in notepade then copying them over. But the ctrl c, ctrl v, shift insert, ctrl insert options don't seem to work. I even triedwhat someone mentioned here with ctrl shiftc and ctrl shiftv nothing seems to work. What I am missing here?

Secondly why if I use this macro does it run through all the commands really quickly? Shouldn't it wait for the sample acion to complete to go on? I tried it with the pauses and without. Either way I end up with the same result.

/stand; /pause 1; /sample; /pause 1; /sit; /pause 450; /stand; /pause 1; /sample;

You need to bind the the cut and past commands. Open settings, select control, select keyman, Click the all tab then scroll down to chat copy and chat paste. Bind those to whatever keys are available and blammo your set.

In answer to your second question you need a long pause after sample. Right now your sampling is getting overridden by the /sit command just 1 pause unit (maybe second) after you start sampling.

set that pause to 300 and try.

Is it possible to make a macro that equips a different weapon and changes to a different numbered toolbar in one keystroke? It would be really helpful in managing the 3 ranged weapons and having a toolbar for each of the different weapon abilities.

Thanks

There was a similar post to this earlier, but I don't know if the question was ever answered. Looking myself.

But, we had some ideas as to how this may indeed be possible. I don't know if you can actually reference a weapon in your inventory through the "/" commands, but, then again, I don't know. What we were thinking is that you place it as like F9 or something similar on your hotbar, and then be able to reference that slot on the hotbar with a "/" command or something. This would SO useful in Macros.

Looking

Eh...

Looking for the same answer.

(Sorry for the split post. )

ya, I've known about the drag and drop thing for the weapons onto hotbar, but, IS there indeed a command line (a "/" command) that will equip aweapon? And also to throw traps. These would be very useful in macros like:

(/equip) Rifle1;

/attack;

/headshot;

(/throwtrap1);

(/equip) Pistol1;

/bodyshot;

etc...

This would be SO useful for combat macroing. Hey, it's easy for surveyors to do... think they should help us out a little as well.

Is it just me, or does /pause 12 only pause for about 6 seconds and not the 12 seconds the in-game help suggested it would?

I'm all about macros, but why would you want to macro for hours and hours and hours? Do you start your macro, goto bed, get up, goto work/school, come home, eat supper, watch tv, then get back to your PC?? Or even worse, leave a macro going & go on vaction?

Servers seem to crash at least once a day anyway

If there isn't a way to do this already...damnit there should be...

I read on another forum that you can have a macro call another macro and vice versa. So for instance:

Macro1:
/sample; /pause 600; /stand; /sit; /pause 300; /stand; /pause 5; /macro2

Macro2:
/sample; /pause 600; /stand; /sit; /pause 300; /stand; /pause 5; /macro1

I haven't tested this, so use at your own risk.

well all I tried to write it all in here but was stopped by the 2000 character limit in a post BS so...
