You dont really need much of a macro for survey other than to stop for HAM bar healing.. The problem is it wont work for very long, you will get one of the popup windows that you must click to continue surveying.

Zutan, I know people asking for macro's can get a bit annoying, but don't leave false information. There is a way to get around the pop-ups (unless the new publish changed it)


Here goes:


1. Make a macro called Sample with the text:

/stand;
/pause 2;
/sample;
/pause 2;
/stand;
/pause 1;
/sit;
/pause x;
/macro sample

Check how long it takes for you, while sitting, to charge up all the mind and action you used when sampling.
Change the X in /pause x; to the amount of seconds it took, although it must be atleast 28 I believe.

2. Run through the macro a few times so you see you recharge all the mind and action and that you dont use /sample to frequently so it sais you can't sample for another Y seconds.

3. Find somewhere safe to sample, use /macro sample or a hotkey for it.

4. Go out, enjoy life, come back later and you have the XP

/sample

/pause 3

/sit

/pause 15

/stand

/pause 5

/macro "name of macro"


Doing this wearing items that have no HAM encumberance (if that is a word) works great and you never have to worry about the pop-ups. Creeping is a problem but after 8 hours i creeped maybe 50 away

Well, if location allows, put yourself up against something so you can't advance away from your spot. A rock...a building...etc

In Theed, go behind the starport. There are several " V " shaped crevices in the building. Face into one of those and start surveying. Good resources there and it will keep you from wandering off.



I got survey 1 - 4 last night there.



Peace

Rumor I heard (havnt been able to prove/disprove) is that if you /kneel instead of /stand on the first line you won't move as much, though you would sill move.
