The Journey of a thousand camps begins with a single click :P

Let me begin by stating for the record that I believe using a macro is NOT an exploit. Anything that CAN be macro'd using this simple of a macro language, SHOULD be macro'd. Why do I believe this? I play this game to PLAY the game, not to be a monkey double-clicking a camp every half hour. They have a positively fantastic game here, but unfortunately there are parts I still find dull *cough* double-clicking camp kits *cough*.

Now, if camping required methodically building the camp from scratch (think small-scale CAD), tending the fire, finding an ideal location shielded from the elements, etc. THEN I could see it being worth my time (And I am sure the devs would have loved to make it this way! But it's that pesky time/budget thing again). Unfortunately camping as it stands is an artificial way to extend the time it takes to become good at something. And personally, I find it mind-numbing.

That being said, here is a way to get yourself some serious survival EXP while "off the clock" So you can get out there and have some real fun roleplaying, completing missions, getting faction points, doing the monthly story line... PLAYING this positively fantastic game!

STEP 1: Make 23 Camp kits. If I could macro this, I would :)
STEP 2: Make a new macro with the following text (I called it Campmaster :P):

/ui action toolbarSlot 01; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 02; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 03; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 04; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 05; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 06; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 07; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 08; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 09; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 10; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 11; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 12; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 13; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 14; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 15; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 16; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 17; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 18; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 19; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 20; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 21; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 22; /pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot 23; /pause 5;
/pause 300;
/ui action toolbarSlot00;

STEP 3: In an empty, two-row toolbar menu, place the Campmaster in the upper left slot.
STEP 4: Place a camp in each each of the 23 remaining slots.
STEP 5: Click the macro when you are ready to go!
STEP 6: Read, chat with your friends, spec out your dream character, whatever. Just don't leave your computer for an extended period because that is technically against the rules (even though I don't agree with it). I personally am reading Dracula and chatting with friends in-game (not to mention writing this post).
STEP 7: Every so often (at least every 23 hours) come back and fill up your slots with more camp kits. No need to restart the macro.

Added benefits:

If you want to stop the macro, just remove the macro icon from the slot. No waiting necessary.

If your camp times out and auto-disbands early (some huge group decided to come hang out and heal). You have at most only a couple of minutes before a new camp is up!

The macro will never end unless you stop it (it is recursive), and it has not timed out my session yet (I think it is the ui actions).
