Hmm I think that im the only smuggler here that never have sold any faction points at all. I dont even know how to????
Sure I can use the macro here but were shall I use it and to who?? Since im a rebel master smuggler can I sell to imps too or only to rebels???

To correct what he said: If you're neutral, you can buy faction from either side. If you're factional, you can only buy faction from your side, but, you can still sell faction to anyone. Its not like it'd do an Imperial any good to sell them Rebel Faction, or vice-versa, but you can do it.
So, if you're looking to buy faction for people, its best to be of that same faction, and as high-ranking as possible.

Is it just me or should the /ui action conversationResponse5; be actually 6? 5 says I have some valuable information for you

According to my visual guide,
You'd need to change your macro to 4 in order for it to work.
/ui action conversationResponse only works up to 5. So, /ui action conversationResponse6; wouldn't work.

tested it
tweaked it
tested it again...
Final test :
had 12 seconds between 2 delegations
took 12 seconds to run buy process
Worked fine for 1000
didn't worked for 5000....
Seems that I couldn't only rely on the pause you set in the buyFp macro : because there are actions between 2 pauses, it makes your macro runs longer than 12 seconds
Thus, buying macro runs 12.x seconds while transfer macro lasts 12 seconds....
You transfer faster that you buy.... so can't tell how much you delegate
tweaked it

Yeah...I've discovered the same thing...and I guess there's really no way around it...
So, I just monitor it the old-fashioned way, and watch my bank balance...

Or, if it works fine for 1000 faction points, couldn't you run the macro for 1000 faction point blocks...

That's what i do now
My macros
one called delegate : buy FP 2 times and transfers it to customer... runs for 12 seconds
one called transfert. Where i have
/m delegate;
/pause 13;
As many time as i need.
So 5 times for 1000 Fp.
i included a /alarmaddin to set an alarm for the 5000Fp version... so that the alarm rings when the transfer is complete
The problem for the time macro is that one macro (the transfer one) is faster than another (the buyPf one).
And the idea was to have small macros without redundant code... to avoid copy paste of big text parts
/shrug...
Was the best idea ever.... too bad it doesn't work as intended....

with the new modifications, there's no real need to have a macro anymore.....
Or if you want to buy quickly your FP.... but since you can buy it 1250 per 1250....
If i'm lazy enought, i'll add a macro ^^
