just wondering b/c thisturned into a how do I macro craftthread
well i just started to grind DE for the second time. Now that patch 6 as come through looks like there is no power grind for me
seems they have found a way to stop it. It seems to work like this after the first machine in the production line finishes crafting the item. It stops all other crafting machines in the line and you have to wait until the last machine finishes crafting to start again
if anyone knows a way around this or if i have missed anything plz let me know i cant go through grinding droid again without power grinding it
once was bad enough twice will drive me wild
I'm trying to use this macro, but it gives me the crafting sessions has ended message every time. I have the right materials and it boots up to the right schematic. Do I have to double click the materials myself? Any help would be appreciated.
/ui action toolbarSlotXX;
/selectDraftSchematic XXX;
/pause X;
/nextCraftingStage;

I'm new to the crafting biz so I was wondering, do you get full xp for something if your factory makes it for you? I just set up a factory to make my stims but I'm going to get one to make droids if that will help me grind faster through DE....
I thought they took out factory generated exp out completley a long time ago. I never noticed any kind of gain while I was going up the ladders.
I count up what I think it should be then open a crafting tool to the first stage. Then I type in chat line /selectDraftSchematic XXX where XXX is the number I think it is. If I'm lucky, the crafting tool then loads the correct schematic. But if I'm wrong, it shows me a different schematic. I then find this different schematic in my datapad and count forward or backward to the schematic I want. I then add or subtract this number to XXX and type the corrected /selectDraftSchematic XXX again. I usually get the schematic I want on this second try. Then I alter my macro to reflect the actual number.
I find this to be much easier than trying to remember if the current number in my macro is crafting station friendly or not.
