Workbench bug start crafting!
Hello everyone.
I have a problem with the workbench. I was about to craft some deer boots and trousers, but even though I have everything I need in the inventory, the option to choose the working hours and start crafting doesn't appear in the bottom right. Has this happened to anyone? It's strange because the white check appears that gives me the OK to work, since I have everything I need, but the start options don't appear at the bottom right. I tried to reload the game, I tried to remove the materials and take them back, but nothing to do. Do you have any idea why? Has this ever happened to you? Thank you. Greetings

As you can see, the "Start manufacturing" option does not appear on anything else, even though the white check is there. This means that everything you need is there.
Only in Create Line does Start Manufacturing appear.

You have all materials needed, but have you the tool required? Knife or axe for deer pants and boots.

Yes I have an ax and a knife in the inventory but they are not required, either the sewing kit or fishing tackle is required to sew them.
The same thing happens to me with the processing of the lichen, I have 5 out of the 3 requested but the start manufacturing button does not appear.

My bad, sewing tools required.

If it's the same for old man beard, looks like a bug. I don't see other reason for it not to work beside insufficient lighting but I think that in this case you can launch crafting and error message came after. Or am I wrong?

Can you show a screenshot of what you are seeing?

Yes, when the lighting is insufficient if you press the start processing button, it does not start and when you close the screen, the writing "insufficient lighting for..." appears at the top.
If it's a bug I think it's best to report it to the Devs so that they can fix it in the next update.

The images excepting the first one (I don't read Italian?) do seem to be missing the button to adjust time and then start crafting.

Just a dumb thought on my part. You did click on the work bench to bring up the crafting menu rather than open the crafting menu while standing next to the work bench? The first item, making line, seem to be functional.

Otherwise, all I can suggest is that you might try and save the game, then quit and (I would suggest) quit out of the game completely then restart the game then go back and resume play. Might be a glitch that may persist as long as the current game is active.

You can't see it from the screenshots but in my inventory I have both the sewing kit and the fishing tackle, but nothing changes!

I've tried quitting the game and reloading, I've tried throwing items down and putting them back in the inventory but nothing works. And anyway I clicked on the workbench, except for Vitalba which can also be done without it
