ok where would i put the practice mode string and whats the exact command for it?


this is my macro for crafting BEC for exp, BUT i make them then have to delete, how can i activate practice mode in my macro?


/ui action toolbarSlot00;


/selectDraftSchematic 000;


/pause 5;


/nextCraftingStage;


/NextCraftingStage;


/createPrototype;


/createPrototype;


this is an awesome macro but if i can activate practice w/it then it'll be even better, then no more mass deleting BEC from inventory.

Not sure about putting it in a macro, but make one by hand first and set it to Practice Mode by hand. Every tool you open from that point on will default to Practice Mode.

You can macro crafting?!?!?!



So the /ui action toolbarSlot00 calls the hot button where you have this macro stored. What is the /selectDraftSchematic 000? Is this a schematic that you generat from using your crafting kit near a crafting terminal which then pulls whatever ingrediant you used when it was created from your inventory? I would then assume that the /nextCraftingStage and /createPrototype are the next options that you are presented in the following crafting steps.



This would save this causal gamer a ton of time of lost "action" play time. What site can I stop by to read up on some more macro ideas? Thanks.

The "/ui toolbarSlotxx" command opens the crafting tool at slot # xx on your hotbar. "xx" is a value from 00 to 23. Thus, the value 00 is the first button on the top row while 12 is the first button on the bottom row.


The "/selectDraftSchematic yyy" command then opens the draft schematic # yyy. "yyy" is a value from 000 to 999 and represents a specific schematic that you know. I think the value is different for everyone depending on the crafting professions you have and the schematics that you know. For example, yyy = 003 for me, but it could be 248 for someone else. You still have to put the ingredients in the slots, hence the pause command in that macro. It will not put the ingredients in for you unless that's changed recently. Also note that the "/selectDraftSchematic" command only works with a crafting tool open. That's why you have the "/ui toolbarSlotxx" command first.

I take it during this phase "/pause 5;" you are dumping your items into the schematic?


Cool macro Grifting. Will definately save many from developing cases of carpal tunnel syndrome.

Taallyn explained it perfectly.


BUT Taallyn you are correct about using a craft tool and manually puting it in practicee mode, and by doing so it will cause all other cratfing to be in practice mode as well... BUT it does not put the craft tools in practice mode if you are using them thru the macro like i am. i know that sounds weird but i tried to manually select practice in all my food crafting tools, thinking that would make them all use practice mode w/my macro but it didnt (i tried that before i even posted =). so there has to be a practice mode command put in there (if one exist) or you will make the item everytime and have to delete them and also NOT get the practice exp bonus (


hopefully someone wiser than i will come forth. i tried to guess at the command and put it between craft and prototype in the string but i never got lucky enuff to get it right (

Hmmm. I'd guess it's because of those /nextCraftingStep commands, in particular the last one. I don't use those. I just use the first two lines that open the tool and place the schematic then clicking the rest of the windows by hand. Once I place the first tool in Practice mode, the other tools stay in it until I turn it off.


You would usually turn practice mode on just before that last /next command. So either there is a command for the practice mode, a switch to put on the /nextCraftingStep line, or there isn't a command at all. I hazard a guess that there might not be a command since Practice mode was only added with in the past week or two.

there is a command "/practice" I believe. HOWEVER it doesn't seem to work unless you have first clicked in the final window where the practice option is. Hence it is not too useful for macros as you have to add another click and wait for the window. I found it was faster to disable the delete item confirmations and clear the inventory by hand. If you use the "2" on the keyboard for deletingrather than mouse then you can leave the mouse in one place and fire off mouse press, 2, mouse press, 2, .... clears the inventory very quick.

This is a beautiful script and it deserves our thanks and praise. And if anyone figures out how to practice with it as well, they deserve a double dose. :-)
