just write a macro that calls the toolbar slot the harvest tool is in, pauses 6 seconds, then calls itself again.

Only problem is the shellfish don't stack in your inventory. If you find a good spot (I haven't found a "bad" spot yet) in 10 minutes you have 60 items in your inventory (my inv. was empty when I started). So every ten minutes you have to return to your computer (assuming you're doing this afk) and stack everything you've harvested.

Yeah, why don't they stack? It's BS. Anyhoo, I would go into this during my levelling days. But, if I"m just saving up the resources to make tissues, I'll go to the said planet with good shellfish and watch a movie.I set a timerfor 8 minutes. When it buzzes, I walk over to my computer and drag the individual pieces in a travel sack I looted (you know, the ones that hold ten items). Or if my backpack is empty, I'll drag them into the backpack. Either way, they'll auto-stack when you do this.

Place the harvester on a hotkey bar. If it is the first one on the top row the macro should look like this:

/pause 8;
/ui action toolbarSlot00;

That's it. Since the harvester will search in about 5-7 seconds, 8 seconds is a safe number. To ensure continuity, getan action (secondary)and musician (secondary)buff. That'll keep you going continuously.

If you want to keep your eyes out on it continuously, I suggest you have a good fishing pole and collect your fishmeat meanwhile.
