Be aware if you are using multiple crafting tools to craft ship chassis, you may lose one or more ships.

I have used multiple crafting tools to make chassis before, so it was a pretty big shock when I tried making two Firesprays at once.
The first crafting tool ended its crafting session and cancelled both sessions. This was Not Good(tm).

Net result, resources and a schematic use were chewed up with nothing to show for it on the second session.

Sorry that I never heard of this before ... multiple crafting tool ...?

What does it do and where to get it? Is it a special new schematic one can loot?

Did you bug it and try talking to a CSR, also did u make sure your inventory was empty when you did this. I am by NO MEANS saying you do not know how to play just trying to get some information is all!

Did bug it.
Did contact a CSR.
Resources were returned.
Lost the use of the schematic.

Inventory was not empty, but was not full either.
The item was not stuck in the crafting tool.
The second session ended the count down early.
Got a message that I failed to craft the item.

I am lost I have never had a tool shut down on me at any time unless it was under 0.0 effect. I am wondering if this member was crafting on one tol and before finalizing one itme started another to try and work around the Limited use schem. He stated that one sut down and he lost both craft. Were you on the final screen before creating a Prototype item and hit create on both at the same time. I have herd of players trying to do this to get around the Limited Schem and it is an Exploit that can get you BOOTED! from the game. Any who bad luck and sorry to hear of your losses if you were not Sploiting. If you were then you got what you deserved.

The first crafting session had progressed past the point where I hit Create Prototype. The count down completed for the first session. At this point, the second crafting session was interrupted and I lost a schematic use.

I was not attempting any exploit to get around the limited uses of the schematic. But, while I resent your implication that I was attempting an exploit, you may be on to something with respect to the origin of this bug. I have only encountered this bug when using the limited use KSE Firespray schematic. Closing all open crafting sessions when one session completes may be an attempt to prevent the exploit you mentioned. However, in this case, it caused a problem with a valid crafting attempt.

Short version:
Do not attempt to craft a KSE Firespray while you have another crafting session in progress. There is the possibility that when the first crafting session ends it will cancel the KSE Firespray crafting session. This will result in lost resources and a lost schematic use.

I have seen this bug way back in the day I was a weaponsmith. Although it didn't seem to happen 100% of the time.
I thought they might of fixed it by now.

I was not implying any thing or I would not have put it in terms as I did. if I thought without a doubt yoru were Sploiting I would have sayed YOU GOT WHAT YOU DESERVED. I think you miss understood me. I have never herd of the countdown stopping and loosing both uses before so I am sorry for your losses. I craft everything this way. I will have 3 or 4 machines counting down while working on the next. That is why I thought it was possible you were sploiting. One thing I dont do this way is ships though becuse of the chance of a mess up. Or something that is using a rare loot enhancement. Sorry we miss understood each other.
