You can do everything except load resources into the hopper, and you can't practice. So... no.

But you can speed up your grind a little...

Try something like: (doing this from memory)

/ui action toolbarSlotXX;

/loadDraftSchematicXX;

//Dump your resources into your hopper

/nextCraftingStage;

/nextCraftingStage;

/getPrototype;

/getPrototyep;

....again, no practice...yet - and you have to load resources manually AND AGAIN - this is from memory, so I might have forgot a line... or syntax - but if you're really into it, just go to : http://www.swgcraft.com and look on the forum.

The macro i'm crafting with goes like this (unfortunately I'm unable to find any / command to deal with resources and going by other posts on the forumns the conclusion is it cannot be done). This macro deals with all but the double clicking required for the resources :-

/ui action toolbarSlotxx;
/selectDraftSchematic xx;
/pause 8;
/nextCraftingStage;
/nextCraftingStage;
/createPrototype;
/createPrototype;

xx = the no where you tool is located, and the schematic you want to create

/pause 8; = how long you want to give yourself to double click the required resources

Mookai,

for some reason, you have to repeat the nextCarftingStage and createProtoype commands for them to work.

/nextCraftingStage;
/nextCraftingStage;
/createPrototype;
/createPrototype;

From reading the macro, I'd have to say that you need to use a specific crafting tool (Not the Generic) and you need to be near a Public or Private crafting station.

Then that macro would work for you.

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to make a macro for crafting? I've looked through a lot of the posts and I can't seem to find one where they tell you how to do that. My brother says he thinks it's possible. Is it, and if so how do you do it?

Thanks!

Since there are so many posts on surveying macros, without dev objection, I would like to put out a request for crafting macros. I have never been able to design one, because of the click-and-drag interface.

I understand that for the elite artisan professions, it should be hard and require time to progress. However 48,000xp for all Lvl I rungs is ridiculously tedious and monotonous when the biggest thing you can craft/burn is the mse6 deed, which gives a little over 100xp per time. This is (listen devs) NOT FUN!!! Why would we fork out $15/mo to have to spend so much time being annoyed and suffering from carpal tunnel from all that clicking and dragging.

I always thought the main point of a game is to have fun. If it becomes mindless work, how does that serve the purpose of entertainment?

I use droid eng as example, but both the weaponsmith and armorsmiths I know have also complained about this situation.

I really don't need a crafting macro, if the xp requirements more accurately took into account the highest xp item that can be crafted with the prior level knowledge.

Thanks.
