luke-- just tested it.. works fine for me.. (looked at the skillpage and it says i got xp.. make sure you're getting xp.. it will generally just do that, but give u xp.. hehe)

to others above, thanks for the /dump info.. works nicely.. added the macro today... .. man.. do u guys actually go through all that trouble of restarting, reloading the game, or doing this or that? man.. before i knew about /dump, i just switched to another toolbar and ignored the fact that the macro was pressing empty keyslots... heh

Thanks, Ter.

Hmm. I sure hope it's working again when I log in today.

Hey, I don't understand that macro that was posted at all. Not the orginal one, but the big long one posted by Umbriel. First of all, for the controller macro how do I know which toolbar slot to use, or should I just use the exact same numbers that Umbriel posted. Second of all, when ever I go into crafting mode and type /selectdraftschematic <#> no matter what number I use it always comes up to a bofa treat or w/e it's called. What am I doing wrong? Also, could someone on valcyn just send me their macro, it would be alot easier then trying to understand what Umbriel posted. But thanks anyways Umbriel, I'm just sorry that I don't understand it hehe.

The versatility of the macro ability will be the downfall and death of crafting professions in this game...

Titles mean nothing when thereis no accomplishment behind them .

lol you really try all the numbvers for schematics lolllllz

okay here is the short cut

open you datapad (ctrl d)

open data schematics and start counting from left to right from foist column

dont forget in this game all first things are numbered as 0

so first sche is 0

second is 1

third is 2

goodluck

Hello,

if you look in my site, i posted a very clear version of this macro.. but the page its on is there as a reward for looking at my site hehehe and using it and realizing its usefullness.. so if you want it, go ahead and find it.. it really isnt that hard to find but i want you to see the site first.. heh

My house gone

Just so you guys will know, I was doing this and I could see that there was some lag that was preventing the kits to open fast enough, so I got in and was putting pauses in. Trying and getting errors, more pauses. Then my macro was missing. So I relogged, crashed, relogged, crashed to desktop. Rebooted and when I got back in game, where I logged from my house, I resurfaced 6000 meters away. When I got back, my house was gone. And it was maintained. I lost sooo much stuff.

Wordrymer turn off crafting confirmations

Here's another tip so that if you feel like changing your grinding items its easier than going in and line-for-line changing all those /sel ## commands . Use an alias ) Example: ' /alias myschematic /sel 31'

when you type this command in you will get the response 'alias set'

now you add the command /myschematic into your macro immediately following the /ui action toolbarSlot## command line, and you have your very own quickly customizeable grinding macro. The number 31 is only an example as it represents the food and chemical crafting tool on MY character )

Now I KNOW there are people out there who have tips on how to customize this macro even further, and/or variations of this macro that are useful in different situations. This macro makes so many of our lives so much easier and this thread is so great come on guys, keep it going, and let the rest of us in on your 'elite' crafting secrets )

thanks-

That's a great idea!

Thanks for sharing

I Have two accounts and was hesitant about leveling a 2nd toon to Bio engi, I used this method allow with just harvesting Meat, and along with a nice big fat lone from my self to my 2ndary alt. I was able to learn up Org I-IV in about 5hrs and the survival xp too about another 8 hours.

so all in all roughly about half a days work to get to novice bio engi.

I'll post part of my old Constrictor Cloth macro. The draft schematic is a different number for every player. The number is determined by the order that you received the schematic as your skills advanced. The best way I found to find the number is start at 00 and work my way up writing down everything that I could make. I had 5 crafting tools, and the end of this macro would call the next crafting station and repeat the macro. I could make 5 CC in practice mode in about 1 minute. You burn through a lot of organics this way though, so stock up!

/ui action toolbarSlotxx (crafting station in toolbar)
/SelectDraftSchematic xx (my schematic number)
/pause 9 (pause to allow for ingredient clicking)
/nextCraftingStage
/nextCraftingStage
/createPrototype practice no item
/nextCraftingStage
/stopCraftingSession
/createPrototype practice no item
