Howdy folks,

I'm new to this game and i've been trying to get the grinding macros from the DE 101 guide to work to make things go a little faster and i can't get them to. The problem is that it works fine up to the point where i put in my resources. I adjusted the pause time for my connection speed (56k) and it is just right to get all my resources clicked in. Then the pause time is past and i'm guessing it's trying to do the /nextCraftingStage; command and it crashes out saying "the crafting session has ended!". Strangely enough, i *am* getting exp when it does this...however it doesn't move it on to the next toolbar and continue the process smoothly. Yes, i did put it in there 3 times as the guide says...and below is the full macro that i'm using capitalization and all.

/ui action toolbarSlot00;
/selectDraftSchematic 007;
/pause 06;
/nextCraftingStage;
/nextCraftingStage;
/nextCraftingStage;
/createPrototype Practice noitem;
/createPrototype Practice noitem;
/pause 1;
/ui action toolbarSlot38;


What should i change so that it works correctly?

Thank you!

It's working just fine, that's why you're getting XP. The problem is with your last statement. I don't believe /ui action toolbarSlot38; is valid. If your macro is in F12 (for instance) it should be /ui action toolbarSlot11. Put your tools in F1-F4, make 4 different macros (changing the toolbarSlot #s accordingly) than put them in F9-F12. Should work just fine.
