Crafting macro -- Post NGE : SWG Premium Discussions

Does anyone have a working crafting macro / afk grinding script that works post NGE?

anyone?

ill get someone to help on this but will prob take a few weeks for a good detailed one to come out.

Thanks.

There is no such thing as a macro you can use to grind crafting AFK, because there is no command to select the resources during the crafting process. However, you can use a macro to help speed up the process.

There are two different ones that I have used. The forst one is more for the early stages when its easier to figure out the numbers to the draft schematics. The second is when it becomes almost impossible to keep track of the numbers for the draft schematics.

NOTE: Macro commands ARE case sensititve!

/pause 1;
/macro grind1
-----------------

Here is an explaination of how to make this macro work, and what certain things do:
------------
First of all, where it says "/selectDraftSchematic 10;" that means that its selecting the schematic that's assigned to number 10. It is very difficult to figure out which number is which schematic, as it changes based on a multitude of variables. I have found though, that for many crafters in the early stages, schematic 10 is a firework. these work pretty well for grinding early-on. you may have to experiment w/ the numbers to get the right schematic.

You need to drag this macro into the first slot in your toolbar. Then you need four crafting tools of the same type. Put those crafting tools in slots four through seven. For this example, we are using generic crafting tools.

to run the macro, simply click on the macro button on your toolbar, then right-click twice outside of the toolbar. This will initiate the process. Once it's started, it will move your selection on the toolbar to the first crafting tool. right-click twice again to begin the crafting sequence. The page that asks you which schematic you want to use will open.

Leave it alone. It will automatically select which schematic to use. Next, the resource selection page will open,

you need to double click all of the resources needed to get them in their proper spaces, you have only a couple seconds to get this done. Then, the window will close and you will see a message appear on you screen that says, "The crafting session has ended!," or something similar to that. Then, you will see your first crafting tool begin to count down in your toolbar.

As soon as you see this, right click twice outside of your toolbar and windows again to start up the next crafting tool. Reapeat the process of selecting your resources and so-on. This macro will repeat itself untill you use the "/dump" command. you can either type it in you chat window, or make another macro using this command.

Macro #2

/ui action toolbarSlot03;

/createprototype practice no item;
/createprototype practice no item;
/pause 2;
/macro grind2
-----------------

This macro is basically the same as the other one. the only difference is that it doesnt automatically select the draft schematic. So, if you are having difficulty figuring out the number for the draft schematic you want to use, you can just select it yourself. *Note: selecting the draft schematic and puting the resources in their places need to be done very fast.*

I hope this helps

Those macro's are great, I was actually refering to a combination of AutoIt and / or a macro to grind afk.

I know, but so far, as far as I know, there is no such thing as an AFK macro, for the reason I stated -- that there is no macro command to select which resources you put into the prototype. You have to do that part manually.

I wrote an autoit macro a long time ago, ground out chef in about 8 hours. Pre-NGE of course.

What I did was split the above macro into a pre-resource section and a post-resource section. The Auto-it macro would hit the pre-resource, double click on the resources, and then hit the post resource macro. I don't have it anymore.

Interesting psycosis. Can anyone elaborate on this macro more?

I have new information on a better way to do this. It WILL allow you to grind crafting AFK! follow the link to my other post in the submissions forum-->Register to unlock hidden link
