    You mean a project where one person throws random materials into a machine while the other three sit around/afk until it's done.

    More than one person can add materials, I have FC members who are leveling turn in mats. (Albeit it is less efficient, it is something we do as a group)

    The last time I tried to add materials for exp, the exp gain seemed really minimal, almost not worth the effort, and how it makes it less efficient.

    While I think they should scrap the group requirement entirely (giving people the option to do things as a group, instead of forcing it), a nice compromise would be removing the requirement on the simpler crafts, like the aetherial wheels.

    The last time we tried this, it said that the level of the char is to low to add the material.
    You can only add material you can gather/craft yourself.
    So for the submarines we probably need SB materials what makes chars below level 60 useless for turn ins and they can just afk and watch while others turn in.

    This isn't the case for every fc. Certainly in mine more than just one person supplies everything.

    But I admit it's annoying to have to get three other people to progress a craft. I hate bothering people when they want to do other things. I'd settle for a party of two.

    While I get that there's FCs out there that gather the supplies as a group, that doesn't mean that an actual light party is required to turn them in. You can just run into the company workshop and throw materials at the machine.
    The complaint is about the requirement to progress through a craft, which is essentially just one person interacting with the console thing, and three others just standing around. There's no group interaction in these cutscenes.

    They should either:
    Remove the requirement, allowing players to go through the progress cutscenes regardless of the amount of people in the workshop -or-
    Allow players to work on a craft in its entirety, without all those phases to progress through, then have a completion cutscene that requires a light party.
