Thread: Help a newbie day crafting XP and factories

I'm very new to doctor...actually, I'm still a medic. I'm trying to craft my way through and I have two questions:


1) If I run a job lot of something at a factory, do I get XP as if I had crafted them all individually?

2) is there a crafting macro?


If your diagnosis on reading the above is that crafting is starting to get me down....you'd be right!


Thanks in advance.

1) You are supposed to get 10% of the xp when you make something in a factory, though I don't believe it is working correctly ATM


2) Check www.swgmedics.com for a crafting macro

I"m fairly certain you don't get experience for running stuff in factories. As for the crafting macro I bet if you put 'crafting macro' in the advanced search option and selected the doctor forums you'd probably find it.


It goes something like this:


/ui action toolbarSlotxx


/selectDraftSchematic xx


/pause x


/nextcraftingstage


/nextcraftingstage


/createprototype practice no item


/createprototype practice no item


Then just loop this so it selects a couple different tools then goes back to the first one so you can create a never ending crafting extravaganza. Also the command to get rid of the macro is "/dump" in case you loop it and want to stop. Also the capatalization in the macro is on purpose otherwise it won't work


Good luck!

Thank you both. LoF - the link you provided does not seem to work...I'm getting a page not found message....?

Sorry, it should be fixed now. Lithium's boards are horrendous.

that's great...just one more question...is there anyway to automate the selection of components?



Thanks!

Do you mean to put "resources" into the slot once a schematic is chosen or to actually choose the schematic of the item you want to make?

If you mean to put the resources (component or an actual resource) into their appropriate slots,then the answer is no.


If you mean to have your tool autoselect the item you want to craft, then yes you can. Here is an iteration of the loop that is done in the crafting macro listed on swgmedics.com:


/ui action toolbarSlot12;
/selectDraftSchematic 00;
/pause 4;
/nextCraftingStage;
/nextCraftingStage;
/nextCraftingStage;
/createPrototype practice no item;
/createPrototype practice no item;
/pause 1;

The highlighted line pertains to what schematic is actually chosen. Quite often, the number is 00, but this isn't always the case. It depends a lot on what other items you are able to make at the moment and what schematic number they are assigned. If 00 doesn't get it to work for you, just keep on plugging in numbers. It may take a few minutes to figure it out, but it will save you a ton of time once you have a fully functioning crafting macro.
