For whatever reason you want to turn yourself, I don't know, but the most popular method to finding a new "angle" is simply pressing Shift+Ctrl+S, as it makes the camera slowly rotate a repeateded 360 degrees around your character. I hope that helps.

had finally faded.

Yeah, me and a hundred other guys, right? *grin*


Situation...I've ground up to Tissue 3 on Constrictor cloths with my macro. (Don't remember it, it's standard fare running 8 tools.) I used the macro to get to Master Weaponsmith with no problems.


Problem: When I try to do the Broad Spectrum Nutrients, it's not giving me the XP. I put in my ingrediants, it actually uses the ingrediants, but doesn't give me XP. If I make the BSN by hand, I do get the XP. I checked, I've got the two /nextCraftingStage practice no item lines towards the end. Not sure what else to look for.


While I'm at it, I've got another problem where my crafting station doesn't register. In a friends house at their station I can fire up my tool and see all my schematics. In my own house at my station, it acts like I'm not near a station. Ideas?


Thanks.

You need a third /nextCraftingStage line

Okay, I've confirmed that fixed it. Boy do I feel like a n00b. Thanks.


Next question:

Why doesn't my crafting station register? If I open my tool at a friends station, all my schematics are there. If I open my tool at my crafting station (Different building), I only get those schematics which are available without a station. Suggestions?

Yes, but you have to follow the formatting of the other macros, I believe.

Nope, no variables in macros sorry. You have to change all the values each time.

A slight primer to minor, open-ended, scripting. Sort of takes the 'macro' idea above and beyond but yes, theoretically, it is possible.

i've no use for such a macro, so do post back if it works.


only two macros i use is a simple crafting one and a "/loot; /harvest".. oh and a looping /shout macro that i alter when i want something or am teaching, put it on a 1min timer, any shorter still looks spammy if your in a quiet place.

Seriously macros help a lot on ATK issues to save us time. I love making macros as well, but something I couldn't solve is:


Selection Boxes.. Like ticket selection box for destination..


Where I want to use this for, creating hours of hours vendors and each time they come in stupid colors added with ID patch or green hair with pink facial color etc. Mainly it is same screen like selecting a ticket.. so I give up after 7 hours, not being able to make a vendor without a pink hair, I decided to go macro.


Is there a way to make a macro till I get to naming vendor screen?


is there a command to make a select on selection screens like selection0 or something?
