"Resume" button for interrupted synths

[Seraphita]

I have lost many materials due to this...
They should address this post haste.

Simple solution is just to not worry about implementing resuming. How often do people actually DC while crafting? Sure, it sucks, but things happen.

It happens, specially for those that never get disconnected usually on the high level craft you're trying to HQ.
It's just bad luck, sure but it really really really really sucks when this happens. You'll understand once you experience this, I had this once or twice due to power outage right in middle of crafting and it just sucks.

Resume Crafting would be nice and as other suggested, if devs can somehow bring back the last state of crafting & start in a crafting position already I don't see this being used for exploit to try and cancel the craft or do other things to alter the end result of the craft.

Let me know when you lose 2 million gil's worth of materials because of a DC and we'll see if your reaction is still "oh well things happen".

im too scared to try craft my HQ item level 70 stuff because the materials are too expensive and if I d/c they're gone.

Sure but if you know how to hack crafting, why would you only do it for interrupted crafts?

The items are immediately removed from your bag when crafting as an anti-duping countermeasure. The designers for these games never intend for such cheating to be possible, but it is, if not through third party programs then through exploitations of minor errors in the game itself. SE is absolutely right to be EXTREMELY cautious about implementing a feature that could VERY easily (as in, this kind of thing is a security issue because of how ezmode hacking it could be) be exploited to a level that it literally collapses the entire game economy. Next thing you know, they'll have bots logging and relogging to replicate free HQ items within minutes at speeds far faster than a human player could achieve. Then all crafted gear will be worthless cause there's a thousand hqs that some jerks made for free. Sorry, no thanks, I'd rather not have THE ENTIRE GAME ECONOMY RUINED because you lost an internet connection and thus, a few random items you were taking a chance on anyway. No offense.

While making a system without bugs is surely exceedingly difficult, any new system is open to potential exploitation. It's a risk with every update. If you have any reasons why it's not possible, or better yet, any ideas on what might work, we'd love to hear.
And you're forgiven for that exceedingly offensive last statement. As if I'm such a bad crafter I risk every single synth I attempt. What nerve! :]

This hasn't happened to me on anything important, but I know it will. Please do something about this quickly.
