Just do the crafting already. Go to options and disable the crafting confirmations to lessen the clicking.

Lacer, check out the forums at swgcraft.com. There is alot of discussion there on crafting macros. It's fairly easy using the in-game macros to select a particular schematic into a tool, which alone saves alot of time and trouble. There are other refinements as well, like mapping the macro to your mousewheel (assuming you have one).. I use 6 tools and can grind rifle barrels with a mousewheel click, 2 doubleclicks (to load resources) and 3 enter keys, in about 5 seconds. This works with Practice mode. If you don't want Practice on, you can have a second macro you fire off after loading resources which makes the prototype and closes the tool.

So what is the macro for mapping a macro to your mousewheel? And if you don't mind R2D3, what are the macros you use for the mousewheel to get it started?

Rather than trying to make sure you always put the resources in fast enough just do something like this (how long this will remain functional, who knows):


------------BEGIN MACRO ------------
/nextCraftingStage
/nextCraftingStage
/createPrototype
/createPrototype
/pause 20
/ui action toolbarPane05
/ui action toolbarSlot23
/selectDraftSchematic 09
------------ END MACRO ------------

Go to options>controls>keymap>custom and select the macro you just made.
Map it to the mouse wheel.
Start it manually or use another macro to start it, then call that macro after you've added the resources.
It will go through the final steps, then automatically start your crafting session up after creating the prototype with the same schematic selected.

Helo , i just began the grind for jedi padawan and wondered if there was a macro to help me gain combat xp.i can´t play many hours and it would help me a lot. though i think that the combat macros ended with the CU.

Thanks in advanced.
