Crafting favorites/history list cursor and hotbars

The position of the recipes in the fav/history list constantly changes when you craft something, with the most recent item moving to the top and bumping the rest down, but the recipe highlight will stay on the same position, not following that recipe. So after you're done crafting something the recipe in front of you may be for a different item than you just crafted which may cause to start crafting the wrong item if you're not careful.

Also on my hotbars I have a few recipes for items I constantly craft, like ingots and lumber. Now if you access a recipe from the hotbar and the item is on the fav/history list then the game swaps to that list instead of the recipes by lvl (1-5, 6-10, housing, etc). The game constantly switching to favorites on its own is usually uncomfortable.

Normally items like ingots, lumber or leather are tied to recipes of the same lvl tier, so going back and forth between fav/history and the lvl tiers is uncomfortable. I can imagine this may be comfortable to some people actively using favorites, but I also think it may cause confusion (crafting has been a lot more painful for me since this change, I have to be extra careful with what recipe i have in front of me). So my suggestions are:

1) On the fav/history make the cursor highlight always follow the last recipe crafted, not the last position on the list (basically move the cursor to the top along with the recipe).

2) Let us select if we want to swap to the fav/history or the origin of the recipe (11-15, dyes, housing...) when accessing them on the hotbars.

I've been focusing on other stuff and only crafted a few items since this change went in, so haven't worked with the favorites menu very much yet. For items you manually pinned to Favorites (rather than ones the system put there because they're what you last made), do those ones stay in the same position? For those frequent items (the sort you put on your hotbars), that might at least add back some consistency, so it's at least where you expect (even if not necessarily where you want).

Overall, I'm glad they made an option for finding Favorite items, but agree that its implementation needs some tweaks.

Hi,

I ve got another case where, the craft history is more troublesome than helpful:
* Tribal Craft daily / hot Bar:
Before the craft History implement, i made a shortcut on hotbar for the 2 first recipes :
- One for the first recipe in list asked in Mor Dhona.
- One for the first recipe in list asked in Coerthas.

The aim was not at all to craft these specific recipes, but beeing well positioned, so i could fast select the one i really need, which was near this one, depending my daily list.

=> With craft History implement: If the first recipe is already in my history: i m no more positioned in craft list recipes (so i could scroll down my real choice), but directly in the history. Plus, in that specific case (tribal recipe), i have no need at all to get an historic (as it only depend the randomness of daily and not at all my will).

==> To fix this case, perhaps an option could be added to disable a specific recipe to go in history (either by a check box to disable a all craft category (in user interface), or a check box to disable a single specific recipe).
==> Another solution could be to get an option to remove one recipe from history (ex: i click on my shortcut: the recipe is in the history (arf)=> i right click on the recipe, choose a new remove option and then click once more on the shortcut to get on the list i wished at start).

This is becoming really annoying. I put the recipes on my hotbar to be able to jump that far down in my recipe book, not to open it to a favorites tab I don't want to use. Please make the hotbar recipes go to their position in the book instead of to favorites tab.

They should have just made that "Favorites" section be exclusively for items the player chooses to pin to favorites, and not have the software choose items based on frequency or recency.
