Thread: Problems with Crafting Stations?

Has anyone else had a problem with their crafting station? I just made Master Tailor (and Field Wear IV) this morning and went back to my place to try out the new schematics. Problem is, whenever I get near a crafting station now all that works is "Simple Shirt". No other schematic even shows. I have to get a fair distance away before my tool works normally as well. I logged out for quite a while, hoping it was just one of those weird glitches where the world went berserk...no such luck. Help?

My alt girl just Mastered Tailor tonight. Her last branch was Casual Wear. I trained Casual wear 4, then mastered tailor and thenI ran to the shuttleport. When I got home I couldm't see any of my Master Tailor schematics or anything else. I can only see 18 schematics if I am by a crafting station, I have to walk away fromit if I want to make any of the clothes that don't require one, also, I don't see the armor tab if I am by a crafting station.


It truly sucks. I was looking forward to making all kinds of cool clothes and it seems like my girl is horribly bugged. I tried logging and restarting my machine-- that didn't work--then I logged for a couple of hours and that didn't work either.


Is it going to work when the server resets or are we screwed until they decide to patch?

Do either of you have novice armoursmitih? If so, that's your problem. SOmething about a limited number of schemantics per tool or some other such nonsense. There are work arounds, but they're not fun.

Yes I do. After posting here I found the thread that talks about the bug I encounter. I refuse to give up armorsmithing. I guess I hope they will fix it soon...yah right


Is there a thread where I could learn these work arounds?


Any help is apreciated.

I can't find any of the threads that discuss the work arounds, so I'll try and do it by memory. After you start a crafting session, type /select #, where # is the number of what you want to craft. Most people say you have to guess and test to find out which item is which number. I've heard that it's based on the default order in your datapad, but I don't know for sure. The good news is, this is fixed on TC, and should be part of the Big Patch(tm) next week.

the command is /selectdraftschematic ##


The number is the number in which you learned the schematic. To figure out you can either randomly guess numbers till you get it, or remember which tailoring skills you got first and count up from the first schematics to the number that you want. Usually I just randomly guess till I hit an item that is in the skill box of the item I want to create and then I go up or down till I hit it. You may want to create a macro or alias for the /selectdraftschematic ## if it is a commonly created item.



Currently the crafting tools are limited to 255(maybe 256) schematics. This is due to the size restratint that the devs put on the crafting tool storage value(it is 8 bits). There are 2 ideas that we have suggested,


1. split the tool and make armorsmiths have one tool and tailors have another


2. increase the size of the crafting tool storage to 10 bits allowing for 1024 schematics per tool.


The devs are choosing to do number 3 which is:


3. do nothing about it since it doesn't concern that many players.

Craigins,


Thank you for posting the actual command, I couldn't remember it. The devs have infact not only decided to fix the problem, they have actually done so. It's fixed on TC, which you would know if you read the Big Patch 2 Report thread. We should be thankful for the bugs that have been fixed.

I have been using the /selectdraftschematic # but onceIget to #195 and the numbers above I get the same item (bikini leggings). I have tried from 196 to 240+ and I get bikini leggings everytime, whether I'm by a crafting station or not.


I know the bug has to do with having Tailor and Armorsmith skills. My question is: Am I having this problem because I have 2 boxes in Personal armor and maybe my total schematics is way above the limit? Or is there something else I can use to get around this? I can only make 3 out of 19 Master Tailor items.


I truly hope this is going to be in the next patch (I know they say it will). It would be painful to give up my 2 little boxes of armorsmith. My guild is really counting on me to be the tailor/armorsmith person

I did read the patch notes and I read the report from our Correspondent, however I only read them about once a week. She posted on 9/29 stating that she tested them and it works on TC . If its in the notes in the dev board, that doesn't mean anything. I'm guessing they went with the option to increase the allocated space for the tool instead of creating a new tool.

That would be my guess as well. Sorry if I was a little snooty, sometimes I forget that while I read every single goddamn post, others may not
