Writing Macro's : Star Wars Galaxies Nerfed Info

To write your macro easier:

Create a text file in you SWG main directory. Name it something like mymacros.txt
Now write this in this file (or copy/paste)

P1: /ui action toolbarPane00
P2: /ui action toolbarPane01
P3: /ui action toolbarPane02
P4: /ui action toolbarPane03
P5: /ui action toolbarPane04
P6: /ui action toolbarPane05

F101: /ui action toolbarSlot00
F102: /ui action toolbarSlot01
F103: /ui action toolbarSlot02
F104: /ui action toolbarSlot03
F105: /ui action toolbarSlot04
F106: /ui action toolbarSlot05
F107: /ui action toolbarSlot06
F108: /ui action toolbarSlot07
F109: /ui action toolbarSlot08
F110: /ui action toolbarSlot09
F111: /ui action toolbarSlot10
F112: /ui action toolbarSlot11

F201: /ui action toolbarSlot12
F202: /ui action toolbarSlot13
F203: /ui action toolbarSlot14
F204: /ui action toolbarSlot15
F205: /ui action toolbarSlot16
F206: /ui action toolbarSlot17
F207: /ui action toolbarSlot18
F208: /ui action toolbarSlot19
F209: /ui action toolbarSlot20
F210: /ui action toolbarSlot21
F211: /ui action toolbarSlot22
F212: /ui action toolbarSlot23

First bloc is for navigate between Toolbar 1 to 6, second bloc to select F1 to F12 key of the First row, third bloc to select F1 to F12 from the second row.

Now to use that to write your common macros you have to create a macro :

/load mymacros.txt

name it something like LoadAlias

then at the start of each macro you make you use the line

/macro LoadAlias

so that the aliases from your text file are loaded an ready to be use and then to write a complex macro you jus have to replace all your
/ui action toolbar(something) by the correspondant alias. The famous ticket boarding macro can be written this way :

Name: Boarding
/macro LoadAlias
/P6 (assuming you put the macro in the 6th macro bar)
/F101 (assuming you put your ticket in the first slot of the toolbar F1 case)
/pause 20
/macro Boarding

In this way, each 20 seconds the toolbar 6 is selected, the first button is clicked. You need to start the macro and put it somewhere on another toolbar or in another slot of this toolbar. This macro will replace this one :

/ui action toolbarPane05
/ui action toolbarSlot00
/pause 20
/macro Boarding

The purpose is to replace all /ui action toolbar by something more friendly to remember and less long to write. The 4th toolbar is P4, the F6 in the first row is F106 and the F6 in the second row is F206. No more math to do.

Another usefull macro for those who have maskscent :

Name: MaskingScent
/macro LoadAlias
/maskscent
/maskscent
/pause 240
/bip
/pause 10
/macro MaskingScent

in you mymacros.txt file you have create a line :
bip: /alarmAddIn 00 00 Maskscent Imminent

in this way, each 250 seconds you will renew your maskscent and you will get 10 second before the renew to stop any activity taht could hinder the maskscent.

you can even create a first macro to call this one :

Name: Mask
/dump
/maskscent
/macro MaskingScent

this macro will stop any other you have (notably a running MaskingScent) and will mask you and load the macro to MaskingScent previously created.

Hope this will help some
