Thread: Crafting interface

Is it just me, or is the armour-crafting interface beginning to get really annoying as more armour-types are getting added? Mine just about covers my screen, and I still have to scroll about to find bracers after I make a chest. (I craft from bottom up, because that way I can just click the next piece, rather than have to scroll for it).

What I'm saying is that this interface would be so much more user-friendly if it had Composite all together, Padded all together, etc, rather than have all the bracers in a bunch. For me, there's just no logic in it. I doubt many AS' craft a Comp item, then a Padded item, then an Ithorian item. Most people would make 10 sets of a kind, then move onto next.

Ah well, just my opinion on this interface.

I agree, it makesa lot more sense to group armor types together, instead of where the armor it worn,


But it might not be as easy a change as you might imagine, as the items in the crafting tool match what is on the bazaar/\vendors

Sothe quickest change would see those categories changed as well.

... which would make more sense, too, come to think of it. I mean "arm armour", poor wookie gets to troll through four pages of chitin and ubese and and and, all of which is of absolutely no interest to him.

Glad you didn't think me a complete mug for my suggestion though

Hugs,

or maybe even the option to craft a whole suit of the same type of armor all at the same time. sure you might need alot of resources, but sure would make crafting armor quicker and having it all the same would be nice. Instead of having alot of different numbers on thing and remaking different peices just because of one or two lucky experiments one one piece, and then the next there is a crit failure.

I agree with both suggestions and also think they have been brought up many times before. In interface based on armor type rather than body location would be much nicer and the ability to craft a suit at once would be nice (especially if it popped out in a factory crate type thing).
