    The Mining Wait macro sits and "waits" for you to 2x Click your shovel and target an ore vein. When it sees the System Messages that indicate you're digging ore, it'll call your Mining macro.

    The Mining macro will clean out an ore vein. When it gets the System Messages that indicate that the ore vein is empty, it'll call the Mining Wait macro.

    These are simple macros that are designed to keep you engaged and out of trouble while making things easier for you.

    • Find a quiet spot with little to no spawn.
    • Preferably, find a spot in/near a guard zone.
    • Preferably, get a pack horse or 2.
    • Re-Target your 4 shovels in the Mining macro.
    • Enjoy your 1,000's of ore.

    I usually combine the ore piles down into the smallest ore piles and put them in a packhorse with this simple macro. You could combine then and just drop them to the ground and drag them along. By combining into the smallest pile, you can get up to 800 small piles in a Pack Llama.

    Here's the breakdown on Ore Piles:

    Note: You must have at least 2 of the smallest pile to attempt to smelt it.

    There are much fancier macros to be made, but this is a pretty simple one to get ya's going and keep you from getting into trouble.

    Thanx for the macros mate! Those work really fine.
    When copying over had to use some trick to get also the macro execution commands in.

    uploaded so all you need to do is drop them in your razor macro folder and refresh usually by hitting f7

    Just want to add my experience with mining. I originally used a macro just like this one but I found it a pain to have to constantly retarget shovels.

    So what I do now is akin to doing the same thing automatically.

    I create 2 pickaxes and a shovel and loop this:

    Use: shovel
    Wait for target
    Target relativelocation (0,0)
    Use: Pickaxe
    Wait for target
    Target relativelocation (0,0)
    Use: Item in hand (which is another pickaxe)
    Wait for target
    Target relativelocation (0,0)

    It's probably not as fast as using 4 (though it mines a vein dry in a few seconds), but you never have to retarget shovels, which is great. I am thinking of adding automatic tinkering into the macro/auto equipping pickaxes, but I'm lazy.

    I know this is an old post but can anyone help me to get this to work. The mining wait just loops. It wont seem to play the mining macro. Thanks

    Razor can no longer see the messages like "no metal", so you'll have to replace the IF checks with FOR loops.

    That change... I really don't know if it's worth all the trouble and confusion it's caused and will cause forever into the future.

    I'm 100% against the change to system messages. The cheaters will always cheat and I grow tired of seeing the innocent players being punished. This change only increases a players chance of carpal tunnel. :(

    It's just looping because razor doesn't read this.

    !Loop
    Assistant.Macros.IfAction|4|0|you dig some
    Assistant.Macros.HotKeyAction|0|Play: Mining
    Assistant.Macros.EndIfAction
    Assistant.Macros.IfAction|4|0|loosen some rocks
    Assistant.Macros.HotKeyAction|0|Play: Mining
    Assistant.Macros.EndIfAction
    Assistant.Macros.PauseAction|00:00:01

    LOL.

    If you're going to respond to posts from 2014, please respond correctly.

    There were changes to system messages on the SERVER side that stopped these old macros from working. It has NOTHING to do with the macros.

    I can post some new simple macros if that is what is needed, though others can do so, also.

    Well, yeah it was an old post and i didn't notice. On the other hand, when i downloaded the macro file and opened razor, those two lines were missing from the client but present in the .macro file. So, it was correct depending on your point of view. With a little tweaking I got it to work and have received some use, thanks for the post.

    Razor auto-removes those lines (calls to play other macros) when you use other .macro files, that you didn't create locally, in many cases. Posted the actual lines of code for that reason.;)
