    Longtime UO classic player, I love what little I've seen of SOTA, but I think Crafting needs work.

    * If I place 5 Ore, 5 Coal, 1 Ingot mold, and 1 Tongs on the Smelting table, I should be able to craft 5 Ingots with one click.

    - I can see a desire not to let us drop all the ingredients for a 100 swords on the table and then crafting 100 swords with one click; but with the resources (ingots and the like) we really need to be able to make more than 1 at a time; perhaps a reasonable middle ground of 5? 10? 20?.

    * Crafting, presently, is woefully counter-intuitive. Discovering the recipe for an exceptionally powerful Halbard and making all the components for it sounds extremely sexy! Having to discover the recipe for an ingot, however, is not.

    - There should be a context menu for the base items which automatically place the items on the table (or at the least, lists the items needed to make an ingot - I was dropping a stack of 10 on the table for several minutes before I tried to use 1).

    * Please do one of the following:

    Give each crafting table a "Clear" button which dumps all items that are presently on the table into our bag

    OR

    Whenever we close a table interface, dump all items presently on the table into our bags.

    ----

    More to come, but the game looks incredible. I haven't been excited about a game in almost a decade! Thanks!

    On a more visual level, the Animation plays constantly while you have the Crafting Station open. Instead the animation should happen for a short time once the CRAFT button is pressed then stopped until the next time IMO.
