Somewhere in the macro you either have added an extra space, removed a necessary space, misspelt something or missed a capitalization.
It may be something very very small so look over the whole thing carefully. I have the same thing happen to me when I first type up long macros sometimes and this is always the problem ![]()

Well, you can do it all in one macro, or I just use 6 macros to load the schematics, and then a 7th macro to finish the crafting session. I think it is easier that way too.
Use this one for each tool you want to use, replacing XX with the corresponding slots for the ui action command, and then like the above poster has said, the draft number is going to be different for everyone.
/ui action toolbarSlotXX;
/selectdraftSchematic XX;
This one you only need one of, put it in the next slot after your macros for crafting tools. And the reason you weren't getting nextcraftingstage to work is because someone forgot that there is a space in there. The reason for another person it was just saying crafting session ended is because you are using it next to a crafting station. The macro posted above does not take into account crafting stations, so this next little bit is the correct way to do it, and will work anywhere, even next to a crafting station.
/nextCrafting Stage;
/nextCrafting Stage;
/nextCrafting Stage;
/createPrototype;
/createPrototype practice no item;
Because when you are next to a crafting station, it has an extra window asking if you want to experiment or whatnot, so we just skip that by adding another next stage command in there.
Hope this helps. And btw, I just made stimpack A's to get through both doc and cm. You can buy so much LQ organic and inorganic that you can prolly get done with all med crafting exp with very little credits spent. Just find the worst quality stuff you can find, usually people selling for 1 cpu or better sometimes. As I got better at it, I could probably have used 7 or 8 crafting tools and stay up to pace with it. I got through CM crafting rather fast once I found the added comment to practice with the macro. But whatever suits your fancy for crafting works. The more exp per combine the faster it goes, but the less money you have when its over. And if you plan on crafting, plan on spending a LOT of cash on resources. So might as well save as much money as you can now.

quick reply, its been so long since I looked at my macros in game, I forget if the practice no item has to be after the first createprototype command or the second one, so you may have to switch it. I guess putting it after both won't hurt, but I know it only has to be after one of them, just forget which one. Good luck.

OK, just check out this thread. It not only gives you the macro, but explains how everything in it works.

I would say if you are going to use the stuff you craft then xp and craft at the same time. But if you like me and just want to be able to through things then xp xp xp. Crafting took me about 4 hours to do just sitting down and using a simple macro. I just bought all the units A's and B's and such that I needed.
