Mass Crafting

Post by Baron Saturday »

Inspired by the many, many threads requesting bulk recipes for this, that or the other.

What if instead there was a new option when starting a crafting project: "Craft multiple"? The crafter enters the number of times they want to repeat the project and (provided there are sufficient materials present), they make that many rolls and start that many projects.

A "complete all" option that just dumps CP into all of the projects currently in the table, starting with whatever was put in last, would also probably be very handy.

Putting this into feedback to workshop it a bit before suggesting.

Suggest it. It's great as is.

If possible would be an improvement.

Would remove a lot of frustration, as moving through menus is very slow and janky. Could be the game (it is), but playing from Australia definitely doesn't help. The less time spent wrestling with menus the better.

This is objectivly a good idea, and is actually something that has been discussed with staff. But it would require a rehaul of the crafting system... which is also a task that's come up on a radar, but we've also got a lot of other projects on right now, and that one particularly would be a big'un.

So yes - whilst it's a good idea, it may not happen for some time.
This too shall pass.

(I now have a DM Discord (I hope) It's DM GrumpyCat#7185 but please keep in mind I'm very busy IRL so I can't promise how quick I'll get back to you.)

Yeah, kinda figured this would be a good chunk of work! Long run, though, seems like it would really help combat crafting recipe bloat.
