For all you grenade throwing people trying to bank your fsxp before the CURB....

/macro <name of macro>;
I have this setup to run thru the top 10 toolbar slots, where toolbarSlotxx equals toolbar slot. Equip grenades in corresponding slots and commence to blowing up Dathmarian chickens (or favorite critter), rinse and repeat. I pull extra grenades from the crate to reload the toolbar slot when the grenades run out. This macro will run across each slot once before going back to slot 00. The pause is fast for the grenades butit allows them to que up.
As I have yet to see a grenade macro posted, I thought I would be so kind.....if this has already been posted, my apologies.
Enjoy

one the same as this was posted either today or yesterday, but i dont see the point in them. pressing a few keys is not really that hard and i think macroing throwing nades will be more confusing than doing it manually. when one critter dies, the combat queue clears itself and you start attacking one of the critters instead of the lair. to get back to the lair you will have to dump the macro, target the lair and restart the macro (which will then be in the wrong place). also, when critters run from the blast radius and you have to run after them and kick them in the face, you will also have to dump the macro and mess around with needless stuff. all in all, i would not bother with a mcaro for nading and i dont think anyone else does either, which is why nobody has posted a macro before.

Well to each there own....personally i like the macro over the abuse my mouse takes....perhaps if there was more thought put into the quests than mindless grinding would not be required.
I just thought I would post a different approach..

i dont use my mouse either, the relentless clicking sound really annoys me so i use the F keys instead. it also means i dont need to move the mouse around and put the cursor in the right place.

i much prefer dragging a grenade every few minutes than clicking or using the F keys (im using C12s.. so its a lot of clicking)
all my grenades sit in their own bag, and i just have the bag open in the corner of the screen and have it 12 slots wide, and keep the cursor on the last grenade in the tool bar, that way, when one is used up, the one next to the cursor on that line is the one i drag.
the ones that do run eventually come back(most of the time), and if you ahve it timed right, when the everything gets cleared, you only loose one or 2 queued grenade.

I prefer it as i can get up and walk away for a few minutes to smoke, get a drink, go to the restroom, or just go say hi to my wife...
