I won't email it in game but here's how I grind crafting XP. (It's really fast.)
First, get 8 food/chem kits, put them in slots Shift F1 through Shift F8. (Trust me.)
Now make 8 macros, named "OneButtonCombine1", "OneButtonCombine2", etc. I use the dance# icons for these. In each one it should have:
/nextCraftingStage;
/nextCraftingStage;
/nextCraftingStage;
/createPrototype practice no item;
/createPrototype practice no item;
/pause 1;
/ui action toolbarSlot##; (the ## = 12 - 19, just trust me)
/selectDraftSchematic ##; (the ## = the number of the schematic, it's the same for all of them)
Now place each of these macros in F1 through F8.
Open one of the kits and type /select 1 and see what schematic it gives you. I use Infection Amplifiers to grind I think (it's a 14 radioactive, 14 reactive gas schematic, whatever the name is). Anyway get a big pile of the resources you need.
Now push F1, double click the components in. Push F2, double click the components in. Push F3, double click the components in. Push F4... get it? You should be finishing the 8th one as the first hopper clears again. In 30 seconds, you'll be shelling out 8 of them, 28 resources each, 55 xp + 5% extra for practicing. That's like 1000 xp per minute, or close to it. Enjoy.
(By the way, with a big pile of metal, using crafting stations (450 resources), Architect isn't that hard to master.
)
I found most of the code that he had worked ok, but its not written the way it should be as far as I can tell.
This is what worked for me:
/ui action toolbarSlot12; /pause 1; /select 17; /pause 5; /nextCraftingStage; /nextCraftingStage; /nextCraftingStage; /createPrototype practice no item; /createPrototype practice no item
My kit is located in the slot right below the macro so in this case its slot 12. The 1 second pause is to give the kit time to open before selecting the schematic, and the 5 second is to give you a chance to load the resources. The schematic that is used is for ADV Bio Controller, which gives 84 xp on a practice and uses 18 lok wild wheat and 18 tatooine fiberplast.
I can't seem to get /nextCraftingStage to work. Whether its in a Macro or even if I just type it in during a crafting session. Does this command still work after recent patches??
Also when I try /createPrototype or /createPrototype practice no item it ends the session or fails to create the item....
This might not effect anything but do people have "modal chat" enabled or not when using there macro's or does it matter?
