Flax_v0.7

Download-Flax_v0.7.zip

• Extract it and place it in a folder anywhere on your computer. I used "C:\Macros"

This macro runs with ATITD in windowed mode at full screen (or as big as you can get it). It was tested on 1280x1024.

1. Run the macro labeled "FlaxMacro_v#.#.ahk"
2. Find a nice flat place of grass that has enough room for 3x3 plots of flax
3. Turn flax hotkeys off, if they are not already.
4. Bring up your plant menu and make sure "Flax: _____ " is the only entry.
   1. Make sure the variety of Flax you want to plant is the top most entry in this menu.
      1. If it's Nile Green make sure you have enough water. (Harvest Flax Only)
   2. Pin this menu and place it as far top and left as it will go.
5. Set the camera to "Cartographer's View" (F8 twice) so that you are looking straight down on your avatar.
   1. Zoom all the way in.

• To pause the macro: Ctrl+Alt+Shift+"P"
• To Start harvesting: Ctrl+Alt+"F"
• To Start seed harvesting: Ctrl+Alt+"e"

Do not move your mouse while it is working. Pause it before doing so if you must.

Changes

12-20-08_v0.6 Added the functionality to harvest both Old Egypt and Nile Green flax!

12-24-08_v0.7 Now you can Harvest flax (Ctrl+Alt+f) and Seeds (Ctrl+Alt+e) with the same macro!

Notes

This is very BETA. Use at your own risk. Do not leave the screen wile this is working, as you shouldn't do that anyway. ;)

If it just isn't working, you can find all of the "*50" in the code and replace them with a higher number. Every screen has slightly different shades and this part of the function will increase (or decrease) the search functions variability in finding the buttons. Don't set it too high.

This was tested on WinXP_x64 with no themes applied except for the standard one. If you have a different theme, especially a funky one that changes title bar sizes, then this might not work.

Feedback

"Leave me some feedback on this page. I can't improve this macro if I don't get any"

What software is needed to run this type of file (.ahk)?

• IGGY - You need to download AutoHotKey and install it.

When I run the macro on my 1280x1024 desktop it works great! ~ However when I run it on my 1280x800 macbook the pinned menus on the side get in the way of the clicks, messing up the macro... any ideas? Also, it would be nice if it did more than 9 flax at once. ~Cory0210

• Cory0210 I was able to fix the problem! Simply minimize the taskbar (startbar)!

It doesn't seem to work with me, clicks in wrong places and tries to plant on top of other beds. Running full screen 1280x800 vista x64, suggestions? -Darkan

• IGGY - Are you zoomed in all the way using the cartographer's camera?

i was wondering if there was a way to increase the yield? instead of 9 put it upto 20?

• IGGY - I'm actually working on that now for version 0.8. :)

hey iggy i left ya a message in game and ill also tell ya to goto mi wiki for something

works on vista 64 bit with 1600X1200 ( max window )

works on vista x64 @ 1680x1050 (with and without sidebar pinned on top) AnarchyRising 06:31, 13 January 2009 (EST)

works on vista @ 1440 x 900 with 1 exception , on seeding , it " tears down the building " instead of ripping out the bed . To fix this you need to change the "y" co-ord on the 3 lines that have " rip out this bed " on them from -8 to -18. Galagah

• I have winXP same resolution. The change of the "y" coord did fix it for me :) - Saffrian

When I ran it the leftmost column of pinned flax windows wouldn't unpin properly. I was able to fix it by changing pinLocX from TCX+150 to TCX+152. I'm guessing the actual problem is that the script tries to position the window a bit to far over. I also can't get more than one seed run to work. It tries to plant on top of existing beds and the game complains about stacking. Zaarain
