i would see if you could get a droid with 110 medical schematic in it so you get that extra boost to buffing or sit in a hospital and do it but you cant charge entry fee to get in to hospital......

Actually you can charge an entry fee in a player hospital.

Yup. You most assuredly can charge an entry fee to a medical center. It's made my customers so much happier.

Good question for certain.


You might want to get some input on the architect or politician forums in regards to this, they might have some concrete answers for you. I've not tried something like this so any guess on my part would be pure speculation, sorry. Also, if you do setup, you can do the buff bot in a normal house with slightly less effiencent results.


Let me know if you set himup. I'd like to go visit

From my understanding all you need to do is get the ability to have the access fee. Then you can drop it if you want. as long as you set it on the house before you drop it it "Should" hold. I'm not sure if this is fixed of not, but I know it use to be possible about a month ago.

I have now added the latest version of this macro to the FAQ. If you wouldn't mind, Limbo, could you check it out and ensure that I have explained everything correctly?


Thanks.

Looks good to me.


My main reasons for having this in my own private hospital rather than a person house are:



  1. In the off chance there is a hidden injury treatment bonus

  2. Medical Centers show on the planetary map, in essence giving me the benefit of having the merchant advertise skill without having to get merchant (Evil isn't it)

Will work on seeing if the macro canbe fixed for the buffing self default.



"When Sony and Lucas set out, we said, 'How can we do this and not make another EQ?' We didn't want it to be all about Luke, or combat, or lock our players into a class.So we created a system that would allow players to switch professions during the game, and there would be a lot of gameplay around making that change.If you want to go from architect to scout we've created a system to make that happen." - JULIO TORRES

I wish I would have seen this post before I made mine. I too had the same idea last night, and made my macro today. Here's the only problem. You get booted from the building for buffing overts because of the tef. Short of going neutral, is there anyway to ban all overts from a structure or is there any way to insure this doesn't happen?

Going neutral will not work either I'm afraid This used to work in the past, but somewhere they changed the way this works, so now about once a week I get gmails telling my Limbo went outside for a smoke break and can't seem to afford the entry fee to get back to work.


I've been tempted to make him Overt, but that will open a while 'nother can of worms.

No, you can't in our experience. People have tried it with cantinas and theators with similar rejections, same with merchant tents.

One thing I thought of, using the afk entertainer and the tend wound.


just as you call the advertising macro, you can have the script call a heal wound macro before you start the buffing macro.


If set up with the afk entertainer, this could be a all in one stop for people.


up your entry fee to cover tips for the entertainer, and then just tip their share to them when you return from afk.
