If you are doing your grinding in front of a crafting station you need to have FOUR of the /nextcraftingStage; lines and then TWO of the /createPrototype practice noitem;

is there a way to have a grinding macro put the resources in for you? am I asking a bit too much here

I've never tried it, but can't you drag & drop the rescources required into open toolbar buttons, and then just include /ui action toolbarSlotxx in your macro to activate the resource?

No...this simply opens the stack for splitting...

Besides, why do people want something that does this for them? Fair enough, the doubleclicking is a pain in @$$, but why is it wrong to expect *some* work to get to a master title...? You can afk macro your way through surveying; isn't this enough...?

Can I ask why you need two next's and two create strings? I did this when I had a macro and I never saw it go to another screen after the resource screen, but it seemed to work. Double-click on all the resources and then a few seconds later it closes and starts crafting. Works fine, just wondering exactly what those strings do.

My god, you people make work for yourselves...

Here's my original craft macro that got me through WS in 4 weeks, you do NOT need the full names of the/commands as you can see most can be shortened:

/sel XX; *selects schematic from DP*

/pause X *pause for doubleclick*

/next;

/next;

/createp practice no item;

/creatp practice no item;

/createp practice no item;

Nope. the default option for resources is 'split' all that would do is open split windows for the resources.

I seriously doubt there's commands for adding resources since there's such a huge amount of different resources and the fact that if you need like 500 steel for a schematic and only have 300 in the stack in your highest slot and 100k in the next one, you're SOL if you have left that macro running all night because any command for that would (most likely)try to take the resource from the top of your inventory and the crafting session would just continously fail.

You can AFK macro your way through most professions now. I'm glad there's not a way to do that for crafting professions.

I'm new to macros and have found this thread very helpful. The only question I have is on the line below

/selectDraftSchematic XXX;

I assume in the XXX i input the number of the schematic that I want to craft - but where do I get this number from?

Thanks,

Usually, when you open your datapad and look at the draft schematics, you start counting with the first one being 000. However, if you're like me and mixed up the schematics out of their default setting, you'll need to do the following:

Open up ONE crafting session.

type /sel 000

Keep doing that and going up in numbers until you find the item you want to grind, then put that number in the macro.
