Thread: A question about faction points

I was reading Dreven's Macro for fp selling in the sticky part of this forum and I have a question:



/conversationstart;
/pause 2;
/ui action conversationResponse5; ----"I would like to resign."
/pause 2;
/ui action conversationResponse3; ---- "I would like to make a donation."
/pause 2;
/ui action conversationResponse0; ---- "I will transfer 10000 credits."

Why do I have to resign from the faction in order to sell the fp? Is FP cheaper for non-faction mambers or is this information outdated? The way I understand is that it takes an hour after you resign for your faction status to change so how can resigning and selling be on the same macro?


Any help is appreciated;


Thanks

You're not really resigning, it simply selects that choice because from that menu, the option to buy faction is listed on a conversationResponse# that is allowable to use. You see, if there are more than five options to choose in a conversation, you can only select the first five with the command /ui action conversationResponse#, we don't know why its coded this way, it just is.

When you first start talking to a recruiter, if you'll look closely, the option to "Make a Donation" is down around the bottom, and there's easily more than five possible responses. Thusly, to get you to a section where the response you need is available to use through a console command for a macro, you need to use that selection.

You can't resign with just one click.
