Ok, wanted to raise a little cash so i can really play the game i made this macro so I could sit in the starport buffing and not have to keep hitting the individual items each time. The problem is that every time I log off it gets corrupted. My other macros are fine. What I've ried so far....
1. I wrote the same maco 3 times with different names - all got corrupted.
2. I tried to write a long macro with junk in it to test if length was the problem - not corrupted
It always crashs at the line after Enhance health.
/say .... Hello %NT Thanks! Have a seat, get comfortable. The
buffing will commence in about 10 seconds.;
/say Just let me check your BF;
/diagnose;
/pause 9;
/say Ok, looks good.;
/pause 1;
/Say Here we go. This should take less than 2 min.;
/healenhance health;
/pause 18;
/healEnhance Strength;
/pause 18;
/healEnhance Constitution;
/pause 18;
/healEnhance Action;
/pause 18;
/healEnhance Quickness;
/pause 10;
/say Last one coming up;
/pause 8;
/healEnhance Stamina;
/say Well, that's it %NT. Thanks and come back again.;
/say Be careful out there;
Any Ideas? Also I could not get any /ui action commands to work yesterday.

The only time I ever see macro corruption is when I exit the game by doing /quit instead of /logout.

Place the buffpacks in quickslot 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 then place the macro in 7 this would be best to have in quickbar 2-6 as most people dont have much stuff in those quickbars and only in the 1st one.
Then just target the patient and hit the macro;
As long as u still have got the patient as your target that should work just fine.

Thanks for your macro. The problem wasn't that my macro wasn't working, it was. The problem was that it would get corrupted every time I logged off. Also, for some reason the /ui action comands were not working yesterday.

Yes i understood that the macro got curropted so i gave u mine to see if it is the same with that one.
In the case of the curroption i have no idea why it does that way as it should not do that it should never get corrupted because of that you log out of the game.
Iwould send a ticket in if u havent alredy.

Your macros are stored on your local PC hard drive not on the server. There might be something going on with your PC, like a virus or something. If the file format gets chaged at all they will not work. I actually had one corrupt while using it in-game because virus scan started running and locked the file. I dont' run virus scan while playing the game anymore.

Hello,
I noticed in your macro that you might have misspelled the enhance health command.
I know the macro can be case sensitive sometimes so maybe this is your problem.

instead of an ingame macro, try an alias file.
open notepad, type the name for your macro followed by : and paste your macro in. for example, mine is
buffyou: /ui action toolbarPane04; /ui action toolbarSlot00; /pause 15; /ui action toolbarSlot01; /pause 15; /ui action toolbarSlot02; /pause 15; /ui action toolbarSlot03; /pause 15; /ui action toolbarSlot04; /pause 15; /ui action toolbarSlot05
(all of my packs are on the 5th toolbar, slots f1-f6)
save the file to you swg folder in the program files. just check when you save it that it is a txt document, and that the encoding is utf-8.
then, once in game, type /load buff.txt to load the macro, then /buffyou to execute.
what i like most about this is you can keep as many macros in this file as you like.
