I am curious. What does it do for the macro to have the same action over and over? E.g. What is the difference between /ac “Earthly Star” one time, vs having it done 12 times?
macros apply lines every x milliseconds (varies based on framerate so I won't attempt to give it a number). So if you just have the one line, and you press it a little too early, your action won't go off, and macros have no concept of "queuing" - it either goes or gets ignored. Of course you can spam your button, but by having multiple lines there's a stronger chance one of them will go off at the earliest available moment. So let's say you're spamming your button and the timing is available at some point between press 2 and 3, instead of waiting the extra few milliseconds to press 3, it might actually go off at like 2.3 because one of the later lines just happened to still be going when the action lock from the previous action stopped. This gets it as close to queuing speed as possible. Totally optional though, this is literally optimizations in milliseconds.
I am very eager to see how you'd reconfigure based on all the AST Dawntrail changes! Life comes first ofc, wish you the best, but you have the best setups that work for me! (Also eager because AST is one of the last jobs I'll be getting from 90 to 100. Your other guides have needed very little tweaking to go from EW to DT, but this job seems to have the most changes and no one does em like Squintina)
@@Squintina I'd take it! Don't string yourself out tho if it's too much. Life comes first. Know that you do have fans and appreciators of your work and what ya do!

@@Squintina brilliant, thank you!
So happy to see you back!

Unfortunately I don’t really have the time for an update however I am considering posting a document with some of the jobs I did test at 100.

Any shot you're making a dawn trail update to astrolo??
how would you setup the controller since the rework?
good see u doing videos properly again. Is it possible to do a updated gatherer and crafter controller layout. Since alot changed since endwalker
Yup it’s in the works! White mage then crafter.
