Automatic infinite credits/PP/MxP while you AFK

SRW30's already an easy game but it seems like there's a fair few people wanting to grind so here's how to do it automatically (will completely ruin the fun of the game but to each their own).

 

My attempt at translating/transcribing (see video for demo):

 

Preparation / ingredients:

• In your PS4 settings, turn off auto-sleep power save
• Equip the "Kyao" supporter which gives +10 EN per turn, so you don't run out of movement EN
• The "Rose 3" mecha, which has at least 11 movement (required to outrun enemy) and low attack range (required to not attack enemy):
  • Base 7 movement for "Rose 3" mecha
  • +2 move from Custom Bonus
  • +1 move from Full Upgrade Bonus
  • +1 move from "Dash" pilot skill
  • OPTIONAL +2 move at ExC3 from the Level 7 CQB training AOS upgrade - this will total to 13 movement if you want/need to play one of the alternate front mission
• OPTIONAL: Level 8 Supply Facilities AOS upgrade, which gives an additional option part slot
• Equip the mech with the 3 (or 2, if you don't have the above upgrade) option parts that give you resources on movement:
  • MxP Converter: Gain MxP when moving - from Level 2 AOS upgrade
  • Credit Manual: Gain Credits when moving - from Level 3 Investment Facilities AOS upgrade
  • PP Gain Meter: Gain PP when moving - from one of the onboard missions, can't remember
• OPTIONAL: upgrade Dreisstrager's weapon attack, and give it one of the ammo repleneshing parts - just makes it easier to kill off your own units

 

AFK method:

• Choose the recurring Earth front mission, which you can find in South America
• Sortie only 1 battleship, the Dreisstrager, and a small number of units - just enough to finish the map (just reduces the hassle of suiciding them later)
• Kill all enemies, except for 1 of the winged enemies with the white face (in my game, this front mission's enemies were replaced with Quaestors - still works but you just need 12 movement, or you can try alternate map)
• With the exception of Rose 3, destroy all your other units with your battleship MAP attack. If a few survive, that's fine, it just slows down the auto resource gain
• Keep Rose 3 in range of the last enemy, and move your battleship (and any remaining units) to the North side of the map
• Move Rose 3 + the enemy to the South side of the map
• Set the Auto Mode Strategy to DEF for all your units
• Save your game, just in case you mess up the loop
• Now turn Auto Mode on and select the fastest setting. The last enemy will chase Rose 3 around the South side of the map, while Rose 3 will move just out of reach of its attack (and hence not retalliate)
• OPTIONAL: Tape down the R1 button to speed up animations
• Go to bed. After 8 hours, wake up to ~16 million credits and more PP/MxP than you can spend

 

Can also do L3 front mission or L5 front mission with the green Geara Doga enemy - however you need 13 movement for this. Also the starting position is different so you need to maneuver your battleship to the North, and the enemy at the South - otherwise you will end up dragging the enemy to your battleship which will retaliate.

 

Example of ~13 hours of AFKing (I forgot to tape down fast forward):

Did this for giggles well at work, And walked away with 500k MxP and 17M Credits, lol Wasn't enough MXP to max out all the research ( was half done with research tree)

Games fun, and spend most my time using auto battle Should make the NG+ MxP% Coversion make NG+ much easyer
