Auto-crafting script

[sol82]

This is nothing special. I use this with crafting macros so mass-craft items. I spent all night mining so I needed to make ingots, so I threw this together. I have 2 crafting macros, one on '2' and another on '3'. This script simply hits a key, waits until the macro finishes, then hits the other key. Once that macro finishes, it goes back to the crafting log and starts the process over

NEW!!!
After enough rotations to wear down your gear a bit, the script will exit out of the macro, target the nearest NPC, then run thorugh the proper keys to repair your gear before opening the crafting log again and slamming macros. To repair, you must stand directly in front of the repair NPC!

You need AutoHotKet to run this. Just paste in in notepad and save it as whatever.AHK.

Open up your crafting log, select the item you want, then just hit Ctrl + S to get things going. Press INSERT to pause.

I've been using "Pulover's macro creator" ( Pulover's Macro Creator 3.8.4 ) for crafting. You do the first one manually while recording, then play back the rest looped as many times as you need. That way it is more customized for each item you are trying to make and not need to use set in game macros. Good for making ingots, yarns, cloths, and other base materials.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING is to get weaver up to 15 first so you can get Careful Synthesis ( Careful Synthesis - Skill - Final Fantasy XIV : A Realm Reborn (FFXIV ARR) Database ) so you can be 100% sure you won't have any wasted materials. The other quality enhancing abilities and order are up to you.

Thank you for this!

I also use a macro recorder program...and this is exactly what I did...create a new crafting macro for w/e I needed to mass craft for HQ items. It tells you exactly how long each macro is..so you let it go for a time duration after calculating how many you can craft. It's pretty simple. GSM/Alchemist/Weaver are all 50 cause of doing it this way. No need to pay for a craft bot lol.

Can you run either of those in background mode? Meaning I can use my computer while it crafts for me?

[sinister84]

Is there a way to have this use HQ materials as well? Works great with NQ, but not having to use the macro manuallly for the HQ would be nice.

Updated the script to repair your gear while standing in front of a mender. Craft forever!!!

Thanks for this!
Possibly add in a small random delay between each button hit?
Not sure if really needed, but would -feel- safer :P

edit:hmm, sometimes the synthesize button doesn't seem to get hit, kinda wierd :/
Think I sorta fixed it for me by adding one more line near the top in between the other two!
" ControlSend,,{Numpad0}, ahk_id %programid1%
Sleep 1000"
(It's probably a latency thing I'm guessing, had to change some of the sleeps as well!)

This is really unnecessary and would just slow the script down. There's no way SE could reasonably expect to collect data on the regularity/pattern of every player's actions. The more likely reason you to draw suspicion is when somebody notices you have been doing nothing but making ingots non-stop for the last 3 hours...

It's definitely a latency thing. I was streaming the latest episode of Dexter to my bedroom and noticed I got hung up on pressing the Synthesize button as well. The 1000 delay was much better than the 200 I originally had.
