There was a macro which displayed the time left for the shuttle. Does
anyone remember the commands for this macro. I thought it used
systemMessage but it doesn't work for me.

I've always just used /pause <however long 'til shuttle>;/tell myself
shuttle's here. For those really long waits when I just didn't want to stare
at a starport, I'd use the same command followed up with a /ui action
toolbar command and put the ticket in the toolbar. You have to give a little
longer for the shuttle wait though, just to make sure.

Don't know about a command to get the time for a shuttle but i use a command
similar to Ryan's:
/pause <60 x Wait Time>; /say Bye; /ui action toolbarSlot12
Then i drop my ticket in the shift-F1 slot and walk away! I will
automatically board the shuttle when it lands.

I'm a lot lazier and more impatient I guess :) My shuttle wait macro is
really simple:

/ui action toolbarSlot7;
/pause 5;
/ui action toolbarSlot8;

=)

I just drop the ticket in F6, hit the macro in F7, then wander off and
do something else. Since it sparks off every five seconds, you should
have enough time to catch a connecting flight.

I may start doing that since I often end up forgetting that I was
waiting for a shuttle once I've left the computer and then missing it
altogether!

However, atm I use the alarm commands so I thought I'd share:

/addalarmin <hours> <minutes> <alertText>
or
/addalarmat <hours> <minutes> <alertText>

So if I have a 9 minute wait for the shuttle I type:

/addalarmin 0 9 Shuttle!

If I'm playing on a school night I may type the following before I get
too engrossed:

/addalarmat 02 00 GO_TO_BED_FOR_GODSSAKE_ITS_ONLY_A_GAME!!!

Ok, actually I never bother with that last command so can't comment
whether it works or not. That's also probably why I'm about to be
fired! =)

I assume spaces in the <alertText> field would be ok (maybe within
quotes), but I can't be bothered to find out. Report if you know! =)

Why not just set an alarm in the options menu? Works for me.
