Harvesting .....
If you harvest on the edge - ie wait till the bars are really really low.....
Make this macro:
Line 1 Cancel current action
Line 2 run shortcut 'your careplan stanza'
These cancel action will stop the pick hit pushing you bars over the edge and the care plan will bring you back to safety.
Also - cancelling a harvest action - I have found stops the gas/explosion if the bar then drops to zero automatically.
A quick tip ... create 2 prospecting stanza....
One with range on it for finding sources, one without range.
In a double tap guide I noticed that prospecting with range tends to look for resources first at max range then it work toward you.
so after completing a harvest take a step back and re-prospect with no range and you should have your original spot back. Beware of the creap that occurs now we can't step back from the spot we are harvesting.
If you want to level your race specific crafting, but also want to level another lands harvesting. use prospect upto Fine.
The stuff you produce will be 'junk' and only fit for the NPC merchant.... but you do gain a leveling benefit.
