Basic Crafting Script

[tsincaat]

I decided to write and post this because I saw someone selling what seems to be a very basic crafting 'bot', of which its core functionality can be achieved with a script that can be written in a few minutes.

This is nothing fancy, just an autohotkey script that will send a mouse click for the synthesize button, and loop some hotkeys so you can increase the quality of your items.

How to use it:

• You must have autohotkey installed
• Save the script as an .ahk file
• Figure out the order of keys you want to send for making your item by making the item once yourself.
• Edit the ';;;;;;;;;;;;EDIT THIS AREA' and enter your keys. I paste in keys using this code block and edit it to send the right key.
  

  Send 1
  Sleep sleeptime

• You can change 'Loop' to say: 'Loop, 5' if you want to make 5 items only
• Run the script, place your cursor over the Synthesize button and make the FFXIV window active
• Press F10 to start and F11 to close the script

People are free to make modifications to this, like I said it's nothing special, just trying to save people money or make their life easier. I'm sure in the future someone will come up with something that reads pixels or memory to do this much better

sleeptime = 3000 ;How long between key presses

$F10:: ;Run the bot
