Sampling now needs to be reworked with XU : SWG Premium Discussions

anyone figured out a way around the random pop-up window that pops up during sampling?
it also rotates the location of the choices you have to click on to continue.
hmmm
Tuon

Myin game sampling macro keeps going even with the popup box. Do not need Xu to sampling....yet

Here is what I do:

/stand; /sample; /pause 3; /sit; /pause 30; /ui action toolSlot00;

Put the macro in the first toolbar slot and start.

I get the popup screens and they build up on the screen, but I keep sampling anyway.

Not a Xu question, but once you start a looped macro like that, can you stop it? Or do you have to logout and back in?

All you have to do is clear the toolbar slot and it will stop. because the longest pause is 30 seconds that the longest you have to wait.

It works really well. Of course I have to see when I get home how many screens are stacked up from the new enchanced try to make surveying fun patch.

Cool...
If it works using the toolbar method it should work using the XU macro....
I thought if you use the toolbar method you get kicked for inactivity of the mouse even if you turn off AFK option....am I wrong on that?

It has not kicked me off yet for inactivity

I copied and pasted that right in and it doesnt work. Am I doing something wrong? The guy gets up samples and then sits forever.

dont use the ingame macroing for SWG. It is really lacking. Use XU. Simple enough?

Here is how I got it working ...
Rcord a new macro like this
1) Be standing at full HAM status
2) Hit record button
3) Start sample
4) when text pops up stating that you sampled xx resources or you failed to sample xx resources hit the ESC button once
5) Wait and repeat step 4 each time text pops so you have pressed ESC after each sample.
6) when HAM runs out SIT
7) When HAM recovers STAND
Stop recording macro
9) Playback looped

Has worked for me so far...

I like to use the ingame macro for sampling so i can then use Xu for crafting at the same time

yea i wanan be able to use more than one macro at once with XU so i can sample and craft at the same time

I suppose, while you're making your sampling macro if you craft at the same time it should be able to play back both, just make sure when the cycle is finished that it can jump right back in with the correct crafting kit when it loops, i.e. you don't want it to try to start right back up with the crafting kit you finished at the end of the cycle.

The only reason i can see for this macro not to be working ingame is that he has his syntax wrong in one spot it should be /ui action <b>toolbarSlot00.</b>make sure you have the s in slot Capital

In the End Nothing Else Matters. You are mearly born to die. Nothing you do will change that fact.

What does mearly mean?

/dump will stop a looping macro in its tracks
