Potion Kegs - Alchemy question

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.games.computer.ultima.online (More info?)

Is there a way to make multiple potions without having to click the mouse
100 times to fill a keg? I have a GM Alchemist with a vendor selling full
potion kegs, but it eats up a lot of my time from play to have to sit there
and click on the mouse...

I thought they filled automatically if you have have a partially filled
keg in inventory.

Like you start with an empty keg and a single mt bottle. You make one
potion and put it in the keg. From there on you just make the same
potion type and it automatically goes into the keg.

Could be an UOA thing but I seem to recall doing it on an account w/o UOA.

I start with an empty keg, an empty bottle and my regs, along with the
mortor & pestle tool. i make a potion and dump that into the keg (from the
bottle) and then i just start clicking away. The potions go directly into
the keg, no need to empty the bottles anymore. i was just hoping there was a
way to set up my peep so she was on "auto-pilot" so i didnt have to click on
my mouse 100 times or more per keg.

I just have a UOA macro that does make last item using the mortar and
pestle 5 times in a row. Saves a lot clicking.

I prep two or three kegs at a time (manually make 3 potions, then drop
one in each keg) then use a UO Assist macro to hammer out 50 potions at
a click. Once one keg fills, the next one starts filling - it's very
nice, and gets my alchemy done pretty quickly ... it is a tad boring to
watch tho'.

Ditto...but 20 times! One each for Greater poison, heal and cure. Couldn't
manage this game without UOA.

OK. First make one potion of the type you want so that the "make last"
button on your mortar does what you want it to do.

Then go to the Macros tab on UOAssist. Pick one of the macros and
press the "Record" button. Then double click your mortar and press the
"Make last" button as many times as you want. When you've done press
the "Stop Recording" button on UOA.

Now you've got a macro that'll do a "make last" with your mortar and
pestle however many times you recorded it for. When you have that
macro selected you can just press the END key on the keyboard to crank
out as many potions as you want.

Thanks Reg, i appreciate your help.
is there anything else that UO Assisst can do that would be helpful. I
mainly take care of vendors and such. Only every now and then do i go out
and adventure - not a lot of time here on my hands to do that.
Thanks!
Paul

I use it mainly for crafting although I'm also hooked on a few of its
handy builtin functions. For instance, you can hit ctrl-b and
automatically start bandaging yourself. There are also keys you can
hit to quickly drink various potions.

You can also make your macro more useful. If you go to the first line
of the macro you made where you double clicked your mortar and pestle
and right click on it you'll get a little menu. If you change it to
"Use Item Type" then the macro will automatically search your pack for
another tool when the old one wears out.

I use the Agents it has regularly too. In particular it's handy to be
able to automatically recycle a whole bag full of smithed or tailored
stuff.

Well, I've heard there are utilities you can download however I'm not
recommending that you use any of them as they are third party
applications and promote unattended macroing.

I would mostly recommend not downloading and using one called
UOLoop.exe as it could possibly be extremely helpful as it apparently
will send a defined keystroke to the client at timed intervals (ie F2
every 1500ms). I mean, if someone wanted to they could record a macro
in UOAssist to simply make a single, say GP potion, assign it to the
F1 key, then run UOLoop until the keg is full).

I'll bet a GM Alchemist can fill a keg in approximately 2 minutes and
21 seconds easily via this method without ever hitting a key. In fact,
I'll bet you could do this with up to 5 or 6 kegs at once if you
wanted to.

I'm just guessing of course as I would never condone this type of
activity on an OSI shard as it promotes unattended macroing. In fact,
I can't believe you are even reading this!!

UO Assist gives you 15 day to try it free. You really should download
it and give it a try. I could not play UO without it.

Now this is really funny. UO Loop was written to go with UO Assist,
but EA would not approve it. The only place I have seen it in the
past year or so, has been on European web sites. Another thing
I noticed was that it is bigger than the original one, so if you
decide to get it, look for viruses before you open it. It may just
be bigger and better, but I am the suspicious type.

It really doesn't seem like it;s worth bothering with just to make a
couple of kegs of potions when you can just record a macro to make
them 5 or 10 or 20 at a time so easily.
