*** Tradeskills ***

- A Make All toggle has been added to the tradeskill window. When toggled, clicking Combine will craft the current recipe until components or inventory space runs out.

I can't quote that for emphasis enough.

THANK. GOD.
 
We've had combine.mac forever. Now we don't have any advantage over the plebes when it comes to tradeskills.

Well, except for farming macs. And inventory management (buy/sell/destroy) macs. And bazaar macs for harvesting bazaar items. And full automation possibility from 0-300.
 
With the addition of the create all button, I think we'll see a whole new set of TS macros. Some that will check your inventory and skill level and go from there.
