I have seen a number of posts from people having problems with crafting macros because of the way that an item's schematic number will keep changing. There is a simple solutiuon to this problem. (I am posting this for newer players - I would imagine that more experienced crafters figured this out already.)

In your crafting macro, there will be a line that selects the schematic that you need. The line immediately following that is usually a "pause" command to allow you to select the resources to use in the item.

To eliminate the need for a schematic number simply delete the schematic selection line AND lenghten the pause that follows it.

My macro went from: (please note this is not the complete macro)

/ui action toolbarSlot##;

/select draftschematic##;

/pause 6;

/next crafting stage;

.....

to this:

.....

When you run your crafting macro, you will need to select the item/schematic manually from the left side of the crafting window. Once you have selected the item hit "enter" Then select your resources as normal. The macro handles the rest.

PLEASE NOTE - After you have selected the desired item the first time, that item will be automatically selected each time afterwards... So you won't have to select it from the list. You will only need to hit enter.

I have tried this and it works fine. It beats spending 30 minutes or more trying to guess what number the schematic you want is. There is also one additional bonus. I can macro craft anything without haveing to edit the macro to change schematic numbers.

This solution worked well for me. If someone else has an easier better solution I would love to hear it!
