Theres another thread that has the macro break down at lenght because someone else is having problems.



Lets start with the usual. If your near a public, private or droid crafting station the macro will not work. Next you need two /nextCraftingstage lines next to each other. Make sure your ;'s are not :'s. They look an awful lot alike in a macro.


Next im running into a weird macro bug where the maximum length of the macro has shrunk. So im only able to do 4 tools and not 5. Something that i think will be an issue on my chef grind.

Check out this thread http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=droid_engineer&message.id=42733. There has been a lot of useful comments in there on macros. It might help you out here.

I don't use this sort of macro, but why not just put an extra /nextCraftingStage in there so it will work when near a crafting station too? It shouldn't hurt to execute that command an extra time in the case where that extra /nextCraftingStage step isn't needed.

You do realize that if your macro is too long all you have to do is break it into two macros and call the second macro at the last line of the first macro, right?

I'll try that, and Sintrosi might want to put some more info on this in his post where he provides the macro.


You are not the only person with this problem Severeds. When I use Sintrosi's marco as written, it burns up all my resources and doesn't give me any experience at all.

Why not just allow people to "buy" the Master title. With all the macro-ers around, what's the point in actualy DOING IT. Marcos are lame. If you are too impatient to actually play the game as it was designed, become a commando, or a Bounty Hunter. Either that or the DEVS should put it the ability to just "buy" your master title. 600,000c will get you master. and you won't even have to do anything to get it. Much like macroing, only cutting out that "annoying" middle man.



It's getting pathetic. (Waiting with baited breath until they remove macros from SWG)
