Droid Engineer Archive

Hi there. In order to stop repeated posts every day I have answered the two main questions here. Thank you for reading this and not cluttering our board with the same question.

The fastest way to grind to MDE is do mouse droid until Blueprints II ... then make Advanced Frames until Master DE.

You will need around 350k steel and 200k fiberplast.

Here is the crafting macro.

/ui action toolbarSlot12; <----this calls the crafting tool 00-11 top row of tool bar 12-23 bottom row
/selectDraftSchematic 113; <-----this picks what to craft start at 00 in data pad and count left to right
/pause 3; <----pauses for 3 seconds
/nextCraftingStage;
/createPrototype Practice noitem; <-----this makes it a practice item so you dont have to destroy any product
/createPrototype Practice noitem;
/pause 2;
/ui action toolbarSlot01; <-----this calls the next macro that is identical to this but calls diff crafing tool

Please .. no flames or posts in this one. I dont want this one unstickied.

Please dont post here. I requested a Lock on this so it wont get unstickied again.

umm this doesnt work for me...i type it in exactly like you said

you forgot to add the second /nextCraftingStage;

right after the first one

I cant get this to work at all, It keeps picking the wrong schematic

I help all the Holo BH'ers out there, Is there any Kind DE's out there to help me?

You need to count in your datapad left to right to get the proper item.

what do u mean left to right....there are the types on the type...genetic...droids..whatever...that go left to right then the schematics go up and down...

Edit: maybe im just an idiot and not seein this...but im completely confused

In order to find the draft schematic you need to use open your datapad (CTRL + D) and select the tab for draft schematics. Starting at the icon on the top left start counting from 0 (your first schematic is considered 00, just liek the UI interface) and count until you come to the schematic you plan to create. I find it helps to adjust the size of your window so there are only 5 schematics per line. you simply count by 5 to find your schematic, once you have located it, subtract 1 to account for the fact that you should have started with the number zero, and viola, there is your number. Hope this helps.This doesn't just help with grinding for holos, but crafting anything you do on a regular basis. As soon as you need to do a lot of something else, just find the new number of the schematic, change that number in your macro and you are all set !

Thanks for the info. I know all about the crafting macro as I have grinded Artisan, Medic, and a few others all I needed was the resource info.

Thanks,

This is exactly what I needed! Thanks guys! I really hate crafting and I was dreading having to go through the whole process w/o any macros.

Note that sometimes the exact count will not match up with the schematic when it is selected by the Macro. This will be due to the fact that some crafting stations cannot make all that is listed in the datapad and is therefore not counted. However, this is a good starting point. Use the macro and see what schematic comes up. If it isn't the one you want, check your datapad again as above, find out where the schematic that was selected is in relation to the one you actually want and adjust accordingly. You might have to do trial and error a few times to get the right one. Also, make sure you are away from a crafting station while selecting the schematic as well as when you are grinding as this will skew the schematics (since some are only accessible when there is a crafting station nearby).

omfg in the datapad you count left to right? AHHHH i thought you ment when you open up the crafting tool thanks a lot bro..
