I am a professional grinder, done everything from BE, Doctor,Medic, CM, architectand Chef. I am currently working on DE and just made it to blue prints 2 and switched to advanced frames.


The macro worked great the first night but the next time i logged on,i could nolonger access the same schematic number now i havent gone through every number but for those of you that now schematics you know that when u hit a certain number u will keep getting the last schematic on the list. My problem is my last schematic isnt my last schematic. I have 6 others above the last schematic thathave the same prereqs (general crafting tool no crafting station). Any one have this happen to them and how was it fixed.

While grinding is not one of my strengths, and I have never used a macro for it in any event, you might want to switch to a specialized crafting tool, without being near a station to avoid the experimentation stage, so that you only have to consider the schematics that the crafting tool in question uses.

It may or may not work, as I said I've never tried it.

While I wish you luck, I do have to say that I don't generally approve of those who grind, but to each their own.

I have the same problem when i try to grind out some units. It seems that from day to day, the actual schematic number changes in the inventory, which is maddening. I have set up a single "test" macro to make sure that my chained macro doesnt waste my time anymore. Try just taking out a single iteration and creating a "test" macro. That should help. Then, all you have to do is change the schematic number in that until you find the item you are looking for. At the bottom of the test macro, list all the schematic numbers that you have used to date, as sometimes they seem to recycle. Hope this helps.

One thing to consider is that when you train in a given skill and gain new schematics, they are added at various points in the list, which adjusts any numbering system you may use.

Did you try 0, since the adv frame unit is at the top of the list?
