Hi there all,
I am helping my buddy grind doc with crafting macros.
She managed to get thru medic with macro, no problem.
Started doc tree just recently with same macro, and now
can't use it! No matter what draft schematic # she puts in
gives her heal wound pack schematic? I tried the same macro,
I get some piece of food, ( Im a Art, and Arch) when i change
my schematic #, I get the same piece of fruit? Anyone else having
problem? Game bug? Any help would be greatly appreciated here.
Thanks,
Madi

Yea it annoyed the heck out of me. Make a seperate macro with your crafting tool open and have keep changing the numbers and going back in the crafting tool until you find what you need. It took me 40 tries to find ABEC for my 4th box of Doc.

I used general crafting tools for my macro... they can still do ABEC's
. What's great is they also don't change schematics after pretty much Medic, so I didn't have to worry about that.

With the Doc Crafting you need to use a Food/Chem crafting tool. The Generic crafting tool is no longer enough.

First, open up the crafting tool, then select whatever you want to craft (ABEC's are best for grinding), and go to the resource selection screen. At this point, close down the tool, and start using the following macro:
/ui action toolbarSlot00;
/pause 1;
/ui action defaultButton;
/pause x;
/nextCraftingStage;
/nextCraftingStage;
/createPrototype practice no item;
/createPrototype practice no item;
/pause 3;
/ui action toolbarSlot01;
Let me explain this line-by-line:
1. opens up crafting tool, located in first slot of the toolbar
2. waits 1 second
3. selects the schematic of what you crafted the last time (this case, it is ABEC). You don't have to bother with schem #, you only need to prematurely go the res selection screen of what you want to craft.
4. pause x = where x is the amount of seconds you need to select the resources. my advice: lag-free place, preferably your home (WITHOUT CRAFTING STATION, as it messes up crafting with the added experimentation phase; also, droids mess up the macro: you craft the item, lose resources but dont get crafting xp), you can use 3seconds, and for any laggy place, use at least 4 or 5 seconds, tho I dont suggest crafting in a crowded place
5. and 6. creates the item
7. waits 3 seconds
8. opens up second crafting tool located in slot2 of toolbar. You can copy&paste the contents depending on how many tools you want to use (I suggest 5). Also, with 5 tools, you have to place the macro in 6th slot, and the last line of the macro should say /ui action toolbarSlot05
Best luck
