Tailors: please make sure I have this right, and add any comments before I submit

Equipping issues:

• 
  Wookiees cannot wear the crafting aprons. They might rip off my arms.

Uncraftable items:

• 
  The droidsmith tool kit requires a droid repair tool. Neither of the two new droid repair kits (A or B) works with this schematic post-patch 7. See this thread. However, an "old" droid repair tool (before it was taken out of the game) will work to craft this item

Useless bonuses:

• 
  The demolitionist belt adds bonuses to Grenade Assembly and Grenade Experimentation, which are useless since Commando crafting was removed from the game


• The tailoring apron adds bonuses to Clothing Experimentation, which was also removed from the game

Crafting ingredient problems:

• 
  Several items require crafting tools as ingredients. However it is impossible to see whether a crafting tool has decayed. Tailors are getting error messages that the tools are too damaged to use in the schematic.

Strange and mysterious bugs:

• 
  Crit failing on an item causes many tailors to lose a use on the limited-use schematic. The tailors are confused about this issue because the official word was that a use would not be deducted after a critical fail. One tailor reported that she did not have a use deducted after a critical fail, but only because she left the crafting tool open, happened to have an extra component, and proceeded to re-craft the item. Another tailor also reported that he didn't lose a use after crit failing, and I don't know whether he proceeded to craft a second.


• 
  Accessing the resource input screen for a schematic sometimes causes loss of a use. In particular, this happens to tailors who open the schematic, start loading ingredients, and realize that they left something in another house, close out the crafting station, and lose a use. It doesn't appear to matter whether the tailor uses the "back" button or the "escape" key. It also seems unrelated to whether a tailor has started loading ingredients or not, as it has happened in both scenarios. This happens randomly, as some tailors have had no problem with backing out of the crafting screen.
  
• 
  Closing out the crafting session on the input screen has caused loss of ingredients. One tailor reported that she loaded in the looted components, but forgot a resource, clicked "back" and lost the leathers (and a schematic use.)
  
• 
  Errors that are not critical fails have ended the session, wasted a "use", and eaten ingredients, after the tailor clicks "create prototype.


• One tailor reports that he clicked "create prototype" and he received spam that his uses were gone, but the tool failed to produce the item.


• Another tailor reported that not only did his tool fail to create the item (though he had not critical failed) but two uses were deducted.


• A third tailor hit "create prototype" and ended up with a "crafting station ended" message which deducted a use and ate all materials.
