[dev1016] Synthesis interface improvements

[RabidSquirrel]

I would like to say first, that this game isn't in the position to make any claims of, "If you don't like it, then don't [insert whatever here]" right now. People don't like it and people aren't playing it right now as a result. I'm not specifically referring to crafting, just anything with the game in general. I find crafting to be the only thing really enjoyable with the game currently. But I will say that making it harder will not help. Due to the game's economic design it needs both fighters and crafters. And I wouldn't have it any other way. The last thing you want to do is scare away people from crafting.

One thing I would like to see change involving crafting is for the color of the lights to be more vibrant. I can barely make out the colors shown currently. Another thing would be to make crafter abilities more potent. I don't notice much, if any, difference after using either Maker's Muse or Fulfillment.

Maximum this, depending on what tool you're working with the contrast between it and the lights often isnt very good making you mistake one color for another (Weaver's embroidering ring is probably the most guilty of this)

I dont see how it can get any more fun than this.. any suggestions?

there's been a few ideas put forth like school sessions and team crafting, also bolstering defendable positions as a crafter, maybe more depth to the minigame, maybe a new and better minigame. Maybe some flashier effects and sounds for crafting to add a bit more on the psychological side.

I agree with this. As a weaver particularly, I sometimes struggle to see exactly what color the light is. I've found that it's easier to distinguish if I move the camera angle so I'm looking up at the bottom of the hoop, but let's face it, having a camera angle like that just makes me feel creepy.
