Hey yas guys,
I am heading down the long path of BioEngineer and when I got to BSN and started to macro that I stopped recieving ANY XP.
I logged on and off several times and I am not getting any xp.
Has macro crafting been nerfed or is there something that I am missing. I am using the same macros that I used to get to Tissues III so I don' think
its the macro's fault.
Any advice would be helpful.
Oh yeah has anyone noticed the schematics are no longer in a particular order? It used to be I could count down my schematics in my Data pad
and know precisely(sp) the number of the schematic not so any more.
On one logthe sameSchematic 18 the next 52 etc. Its kinda driving me nutz hunting around for the correct Schem numb.

Just to make sure: You do get XP when crafting manually, withoutmacro?

Yes I get xp manually and I get Macrod Xp if I use Micro Nutrient Supplement but I get nothing if I macro the Broad Nutrient Supplement.
I have an R3 Droid and I tried it grouped/ungrouped seemed to make no difference.
I am really bummed because I dont want to sit here and click through all of those dang menus.

Does the droid have a crafting station in it? For some reason, you don't seem to receive xp when crafting next to a station.

My droid does have a crafting station.
I do not think I am next to a crafting station since without the droid being out i can not make the BSN.
Only when i have the droid out can I make it.

I've noticed that when next to a crafting station I don't get xp, had to move my grinding to the cantina instead of workshop because of this
; the only suggestion I can really offer is try grinding on something that doesn't require proximity to a crafting station.**edit >> try crafting the MNS next to a crafting station, I suspect it won't give you xp. If it doesn't, switch back to MNS and do it away from a station, if you do get xp for it, my theory is total bollocks so ignore it.

one of two problems
the less likely answer.... you still critical fail, and you will not get any xp, but since most people do practise mode, they don't even know that they crit failed
OR
the more likely problem... your macro needs some work... there's a few extra lines that need to be copied when crafting next to a station

Make sure you haven't capped xp... other than that my only suggestion is to stop for awhile and come back in a day or two and try again

Where I was at I was able to macro craft the MSN but not able to Macro craft the BSN using the same Macro with the correct schematic for both.
I am currently trying to find a spot that is not near a public station and crafting there to see if it makes a difference.
What additions do I need to add to my macro in order for them to work around a public crafting station?
As for the Crit fails suggestion it doesnt even get that far. It takes my resources and then doesnt engage the crafting tool.
Yet works perfectly for the MSN.
Thanks for the suggestions. Still trying to figure out a workaround.

depending on your macro, it may not even _Appear_ to be doing anythign past the stage where you put in resources, but it might be. if you give us a sample of your macro we may be able to help more

What I mean by not doing anything is that the Crafting Tool does not count down.
I think it should start at 40secs then count down. It works with droid out manually and it works with MSN macro but cant do the BSN Macro.
I will post my macro in a bit.. I forget exactly how it goes.

This is the macro that I use to macro craft pretty much any and everything. All you have to do is switch out the DrafScehmatic number and its good to go.
The last line is just a way to loop this macro.
I think its pretty vanilla I still have had NO luck getting BSN to be macroable.
thnx
