This should be cleared up in Publish 19








It is? Well should doesn't mean it will, cause right now I see NO fix on TC. So I'm wondering what your definition of "cleared up" means.

you can make a macro call itself inserting /macro my_macro_name_here


for example to avoid being booted out of the server if you have to go afk and don't know when coming back :



  • Macro : stay_put

  • /sit;

  • /pause 300;

  • /stand;

  • /pause 300;

  • /macro stay_put;


Nice tip the alias command I forgot about it when I quit the artisans professions

Bah. I beat her to the announcement and all I looted was 42 credits and a lousy NS Lance.

Thank you for the info TH!!

This is actually a great tip, it seems all my friends have ' or - in their names or really wierd spellings, i like to alias them to just the first 3 letters of their name if i can.

I use aliases mainly to write in mutiple chat channels without changing the Chat tabs.


Most of the Spam from the Guildchat, the"open"guildchat, the GerCom and so on is dispalyed in the Spatial Chat Tab.


I made an alias for every Channel, for the open Guildchat:


/alias dc /SWG.goarth.chat.Dragon (You'll find the Adress of theChanel inits "Modify Tab" window)


Now i have a command similar to the /gu for the guldchat. /dcMoin Dragons! will write "Moin Dragons!" in the channel Dragon.


verry useful if you chat in several channels

Thank the maker! Hopefully we'll get a new version on TC today and then publish 19 tomorrow, but I suppose that's hoping for a lot.

Goodbye my love, goodbye. Losing ground is what it takes if you really want to fly.

"Looks like SWG attracts the biggest cry babies, who whine about the game in multiple forums but continue to play it. We are tired of people making multiple posts in every PCG forum and whining about SWG. If you hate the game stop paying the monthly fee and sell everything on Ebay."

Now here is a good tip from the players to the devs:
  • "If a red name posts more often on the forums and answers questions/concerns, explains the decisions to enhance/nerf something and provide more details as to future directions of the game, players are happier, flame less and do less trolling. They might even recommend the game to their friends."

That's my TT...

FYI, you can remove an alias with the /unalias command. "/unalias jentara" would remove it without having to exit and edit your aliases.txt file.


In addition, you can create your own alias file and load it up with the "/load" command. When used by itself, it reloads the alias.txt file, but you can also "/load myalias.txt" or any other file in the proper format. So for example, make a decoration.txt file that you alias in when you're going to be doing a lot of decorating or to share with a friend






Great tip Oracle!




Hey, it would be really cool if we could save all of our UI settings to a local file with some slash command and then copy them to another PC or another character and load them with a slash command (and relog if necessary)





Some of my pet peeve bugs:
•Armorsmith protection layers were not converted with the CU.
•Ship Details window does not close when you click "Travel" resulting in the message "You have lost the target. Closing interface."
