Having macro problems...Follow

I had the same problems for quite some time with my macro, and to be honest, I can't remember what I did that fixed it. I think your macro may be missing a step or two. I think the big thing is the pause times. You have to play around to get them right. I will copy below my crafting macro. Some people have reported having similar problems with my macro. All I can say is that I don't know why but it works for me. I was using it just last night and have been using it for about 3 months. I only grind about 1/2 an hour a session which it why it is taking me so long to grind.

(And to anyone saying to themselves 'Oh no not again' I'm just trying to be helpful. I know I have posted this about 6 times over the last couple of months, but people keep asking the same question)

I have tried several different things but find this grinds fastest. Use your generic crafting tool to make yourself 4 structure crafting tools. You want to grind Personal Moisture Evaporators. They will give you just over 500 xp each. They use up a lot of resources. Aluminium, ore, steel being the main ones but you can also use some iron and copper if you are low on the others. This schematic does not require anything else except the resources. Set up a macro like the one below. I have posted this before so what I paste below has been cut and pasted from another entry.

Make sure that you have 4 crafting tools in the first 4 slots of your toolbar. Make sure that you name the macro 'Grind'.

You may have to play with the pause times depending on lag and on the crafting time for the item.

Before you start grinding, use the 4th tool in your toolbar to make one of what you are going to grind. This will then make the item your 'default item' for the session. Then type '/macro grind' and your going. An important tip is to just have the ingredients that you need for grinding in your inventory as the macro doesn't give you a lot of time to search through a multitude of ingredients.
