Wrapped Ash Longbow Recipe Bugged - Wrong Materials Needed?
Just going to copy-paste what I wrote in another thread. Posting it here so it gets the attention of the bug fixers. :)
So the Wrapped Ash Longbow's recipe is this:
Wrapped Maple Longbow
Aldgoat Leather
Antelope Sinew
This makes no sense, as you can't magically turn Maple into Ash by adding leather and sinew.
But much to my surprise and chagrin, this recipe is how it works.
So in order to synth this, you have to make a Maple Longbow (out of MAPLE BRANCHES and LUMBER mind you), convert that into a Wrapped Maple Longbow, then use that Wrapped Maple Longbow as the ingredient for the Wrapped Ash Longbow recipe.
I'm assuming the original recipe is supposed to be
Ash Longbow
Aldgoat Leather
Antelope Sinew
As this follows the pattern of the Wrapped Maple Longbow recipe.
But that's not the case. I initially thought it was a small typo on the website and tried to use the recipe I just mentioned but it wouldn't work. However using a Wrapped Maple Longbow instead of the Ash Longbow did, so I'm assuming whoever wrote the 1.19 recipe list just wrote what was given to them and didn't have a chance to check if this recipe made sense.
Could someone from SE please let us know if this is working as intended or if this was just an incorrectly implemented recipe?
Thank you!
Edit: Pasting in the bug submission form. I'm not the one making the recipe, I'm posting this on behalf of my Leatherworker friend, but I'll be using my information instead.

Steps:
1. Attempt to synth Wrapped Ash Longbow recipe using Ash Longbow, Aldgoat Leather, and Antelope Sinew, which follows the pattern of the Wrapped Maple Longbow recipe. Game says that I cannot craft with those materials.
2. Attempt to synth Wrapped Ash Longbow recipe using Wrapped Maple Longbow, Aldgoat Leather, and Antelope Sinew. Game allows me to synth - successful synth produces a Wrapped Ash Longbow.
Basically, I think the Wrapped Maple Longbow in the recipe just needs to be replaced with a regular Ash Longbow to fix it.
